[Coco] OK, I give in...

[David J. Cooper]

I just found a Color Computer 1 for free.  It's in great shape.  I suppose
it's going to be hard to find a floppy disk cartridge for it?  If someone
could point me to the schematics, I'd build one!  I did some searching in
google but wasn't able to find a technical reference or service manual for
the disk cartridge, but I'm sure it's got to be out there somewhere?

through this list now for a while and have developed a fascination with the
color computer, too...i think.  I guess it's time I break down and buy one
and see!
