[Coco] Help Locating some Parts

[Mike Rowen]

I may have a spare transformer for you. I won't have access to it until this
weekend though. I'll take a look and make sure its working, etc. I have seen
these on ebay pretty frequently as well. I'll keep you posted. Being a Unix
guy, you should definitely take a look at NitrOS9 for the Coco. If you have
not used OS-9, its very Unix like - Unix without virtual memory. :) As Gene
has told you, a 6309 upgrade to your processor is worthwhile. I use the
Cloud-9 Protector which also protects your 6809/6309 from nasty bus glitches
on the expansion port that can fry it. Welcome to the list. I myself only
got back into the CoCo about a year ago. Plenty of people here to help you,
etc.

Cheers,
-Mike Rowen
