[Coco] New Years Resolution:to read all the Rainbow

[rietveld rietveld]

Some trivia

The Rainbow was advertised as:

Just for your
TRS-80 Color
TDP system 100
Dragon 32

Til April 1983

Then changed to :

Just for your
TRS80 color
TDP 100 system 100
Dragon & MC10

Til Mar 1985

Then in April 1985 it read:

Just for your
Tandy color Computer

Until the coco3 came and in Sept 1986 it read:

Just for your color computer 1,2, and 3

Yeah, there was a debate within Rainbow and it’s readers about calling it a “Coco”, or “80C”, etc. I think it finally settled in later 1982, if I remember correctly.
