Actually, it was mine -- a CP400 Color II by Prologica.

I put some pictures of it here:

It seems to be compatible with the CoCo and CoCo2.  It even runs
Fahrfall... :-)

The downside, of course, is that it outputs "PAL-M" video (i.e. NTSC
video timings with PAL color encoding).  So it shows-up as black and
white on NTSC televisions.  I do have a tuner box that understands
that mode, so it isn't all bad.

The other main problem with mine is that the power switch is broken.
It has a few swollen caps too...  Oh, well, something to fix!
