[Coco] Including an SSC

[Al Hartman]

Sorry, but you can't disagree with 1,3 and 4.

It has already been said that the CocoSDC is so tight to the case, that 
adding the SSC components will mean it doesn't fit in the case.

As for the other two, I said "a lot of us" , not "all of us."

I would rather see a clone of the MultiPak that can sit behind the Coco, 
connected via a cable so I can connect more stuff without my Coco spreading 
out too far to the right. I used to have a Multipak, but I don't know what I 
did with it.

With all due respect Al, I would tend to disagree with 1, 3 and 4.  As for
2, how many months has in been since Darren's last production run and this
one - which has materialized in a matter of days?

It is now a moot point.  Those who suggested some additional ideas, like
adding a SSC or even just an onboard expansion port will have to look
elsewhere... oh well, we tried.

Nick, in terms of connections... I wonder if the cassette port might be
utilized?  Like the X10 module.  In this way there would be no tinkering
involved, no Multi-pak needed and the audio feed into the coco is there.
