[Coco] Hello Color Computer Users

[John M. Eicher]

For the most part, I wanted to let you know what an impact your writing
has had on my life. Your information and guidance brought me so far
along in programming all those years ago. Indeed, I am getting back into
6809 assembly programming and of course your book is again my faithful
companion as I re-discover the joy of CoCo programming. I owe quite a
lot to you.

Thanks!
John

Subject: [Coco] Hello Color Computer Users


Hello,

My name is William Barden, Jr.  Many of you probably know me from my
columns 
in Rainbow Magazine and the several books that I authored on various
topics 
for the Color Computer.  Someone forwarded me a link to a website which 
contained some discussion about me, and after doing some research, I
found 
this mailing list.

For those who are wondering, I have been retired for a number of years,
and 
am currently living in Palm Beach, Florida.  I still have a few Color 
Computers in storage, though I have not turned them on in a number of
years. 
  From doing a search on the Internet, I was surprised to learn that
there 
is still a lot of activity with the Color Computer.  Such devotion has 
always been a part of the Color Computer's history, and it is good to
see it 
being carried on today.  I hope that in some way, my articles and
writings 
have inspired others to do amazing things with their Color Computers.

While I do not have a lot of time even as a retiree, I would be willing
to 
take questions regarding my writings and works related to the Color 
Computer.  As I have stated, it has been a number of years since I have
done 
anything with the computer, so please bear with me if I cannot give as
much 
assistance as I would like.

William Barden, Jr.
