[Coco] Remembering your CoCo Repacks

[tfadden]

I still have both re-packs I made.  The first one is a coco3 board 
upside down with a multipack on top of that back to back so the paks are 
vitical out the back like a regular PC possible because of the crude 
circuit boards that made the mulit pak slots rotated 90 degree. I had to 
MFM hard dirves and an adaptac scsi to mfm drive adapter. along with 3 
floppies, and a Fupo keyboard adapter.  The second one is a coco3 with a 
Disto superII and 4in one board flipped back over the coco board fitted 
virtical in a mini tower again 2 scsi drives, pupo keyboard adapter, and 
a Roy Justice VGA Adapter. Both were powered with the PC powersupply, 
and all ports jumpered to ports on the back of the case.  Sadly both are 
no longer 100% up and running. The Disto died, and MFM drives are about 
impossible to find any more.  They both could be floppy only machines, 
or with a little work made complete again.

Cheers
