[Coco] atari USB device

[jdaggett at gate.net]

Cypress has two  chips and I believe Atmel has at least one. 

The two Cypress chips have a processor wrapped around a 4K bios 
that will implement USB2.0 and an onboard 8K ram for data 
storage. 

There are other solutions. The Cy press SL811HS is a low cost low 
end means of getting some USB functionality in small 8 bit 
computers.
