[Coco] [Color Computer] Re: Sad News For Canadian's

[Glen VanDenBiggelaar]

The real crime was when I (jokingly) asked the guy for a TRS-80 floppy drve, 
and I gave him the Catalog number also, and he aked me what TRS-80 was (His 
question-" is that some kind of new type of drive -like the old zip?") I 
just smiled as he looked up in his computer and it came back part# not 
found. I told him to ask the owner if they still had any in the back stock.
