[Coco] A new year is here...

[Edward Plaskur]

Wow, that guy would have thought he hit the jackpot. While my gear was relatively modest in comparison, I too gave away all my CoCo gear to a school friend who was also in to all things Tandy. I’d rather it went to a home where it got used as intended rather that sit and do nothing, similar to what happened with you it seems.

Have a good one Stan, brought back memories of the Colour Computer Meet that was held in Frankston where ‘The Deck’ is now. Practically an ocean view with all things Tandy and a Tandy store around the corner made for a really great day as a school kid back then.

The guy came from interstate, about a 700k round trip. Managed to fill his boot (trunk), entire back seat and passenger seat (and it wasn't a small car).  The main system was solely OS9 and had 3 floppies (one 3.5") and 2 hard drives (20meg for the main system and 80meg for all the files).  Also ran a BBS on it for many years.
