[Coco] So, my CoCo 3 may be having some trouble

The Music pak (26-3151) appeared on the RSC-4 catalog back in 1981. Not
much info on it beside the requirement of RAM being 4k. Wouldn't surprise
me if the program used one of the VGA hi-res semigraphics modes,
unsupported on the CoCo 3.

Need to research that further when I get home from work.
