[Coco] How about THIS as a CoCo 3 replacement instead of an FPGA?Thoughts?

[Stephen H. Fischer]

Or, John Collyers's CoCo 3 6309 version based on Jeff's 6809 version.

For a really hard task, his version with a VHD is available:

ftp://www.rtsi.com/RSDOS/incoming/john%20collyer/coco.zip

I have an alternate version of this:

ftp://www.rtsi.com/RSDOS/incoming/johncollyer_website.zip

How hard would it be to transfer files from Windows to and from that device or would it just be another isolated island, a world of itself.
