[Coco] Are there any CoCo BBS's out there?

[Jim Cox]

Or use a USB to Serial adapter.  They are a little buggy, 
but they work (most of the time)

Another possibility is to use the serial port to ethernet 
that was mentioned earlier, connect the CoCo and a PC via 
a Hub or Switch, and then have some some server software 
on a PC connect to the CoCo and relay the information via 
the net.

Regardless of the connection, shouldn't it be fairly easy 
to take the data and forward it to a BBS?
