The foundation is there, a little TLC will go a long way.

Had also an interest with those replacement keyboards back in the day, have
to admit I was happy with the chiclets, to this day I find my self taught
keyboarding abilities are more at ease on the early chiclets than in the
later releases: the melted F board keys and then the CoCo 2 and 3 - the
melted keys are the less friendly to my big hands.

My eye on replacement keyboards was actually more on the number keypads
once on the market, always thought that was the first thing to setup on the
CoCo.
