[Coco] eBay+Paypal+AnIdiot=A MESS

[coco at yourdvd.net]

:-) it was worth the lil' bit of hassle to get the 26-3024 white
multi-pak. I won't have to fiddle around with piggybacking a chip - i
just need the PAL. Now I can get my CoCo system up and going and make
some new stuff for the CoCo community. I am gonna start a little
website with all my work. I patched the Tetris Program Pack so that
CoCo 3 users can opt to play the CoCo 3 or CoCo 2 version. Normally the
ROMPAK detects coco 2 or 3 and run the appropriate version. I replaced
this autodetect with code to let a CoCo 3 user select which vesion they
wanted to play :-) - if i can find the source code (this was a patch I
did in '93), i'll post it to the list, otherwise I'll have to recreate
it and then post it. :-) --r
