Sorry was busy at VCF in Wall NJ this weekend. :-D There as at least
one CoCo. There were a lot of other's also including a French MC-10 (sp?)

Now it's meant as a joke but when I as younger the flame wars were
Apple, Commodore and Atari. There weren't a lot of others at the time
(in my area) but to be honest the 'my computer is better computer'
flame-wars were ridiculous

And it was quite common among those who didn't just use a TV to get
one of the Commodore monitors. A bit of black tape save you're
allegiance.  ;-) Which was, rather ridiculous as Commodore didn't
even make the monitor. I think my 1802 is a Magnavox or an Amdek.
