If you start MAME emulating a CoCo3 once with a floppy controller 
inserted, it remembers that configuration and next time you start a 
CoCo3 emulation it will have the floppy controller inserted. If that is 
not what you want, you can either launch MAME and enter the menu and 
eject the floppy controller or delete the coco3.ini file to restore the 
defaults. The coco3.zip file only has to include the coco3.rom file. The 
floppy controller ROM can either be included there or placed in a 
separate file named coco_fdc_v11.zip for the version 1.1 floppy ROM or 
coco_fdc.zip for the version 1.0 ROM. There is also a coco_rgsdos.zip 
for RGBDOS. The RGBDOS one is for a special MAME only version of RGBDOS.
