>>computer projects, but I'm looking for something very basic, not a full
>>blown system. Any ideas and/or resources appreciated.
Back in my coco days, I bought a breadboard that was made for just the coco.
It plugged right into the cartridge port. There were no components on
it it was just bare.

Using Barden's & Laurence Tepolt's books I was able to rig up a PIA
with LEDS on one port and switches on another.
I used DiskEdtasm to make a short program which read the switches and
turned the LEDS on/off.

I don't remember who made the breadboard that plugged into the
cartridge port, maybe someone on the list does.
Chances are the company who made this had advertised in Rainbow Mag.
I sold all my coco gear in the mid 90's.
