[Coco] CoCoOz

[Bob Devries]

The Australian Rainbow had all the articles that the US Rainbow did, but 
with Australian advertisements. I have scanned a couple of them, and 
uploaded them to www.cocodownunder.com/uploads/ Unfortunately, the quality 
didn't measure up to "The Rainbow". I have always been of the opinion that 
Aussie dealers have tried to do their stuff on the cheap. Hence the manuals 
that cam with software purchased in Australia were very badly done 
photo-copies, sometimes with pages and/or sections of text missin, or 
unreadable. This applied to the Australian Rainbow too.
