[Coco] CoCo 2 Factory Composite Video RE'd

On performance, I’m not sure exactly.  Boot time seems similar to me without timing it.

I have one in a Power Mac 7200 right now, which I also have a 4GB (Quantum?) drive in.  
I’ll compare boot times, and file duplication times and post back.  
That should be an ok (quick) performance test I think.
