Was never a huge fan of the CoCo1's chicklet keyboard, though, it was light years ahead of the Atari 400's and definately the Timex's and MC-10's.
No, the CoCo's didn't deserve to be on the list and I was glad it wasn't.

That's a fun article. Of course Commodore appears 3 times in that list
(mentioning the C=64 and the Vic 20 in the same entry). The keyboard on
the Apple 2C wasn't all that nice either, but I guess it didn't sink to
the depths of the T/S 1000. They mention the (real) CoCo but don't dis
the original CoCo's chicklet keyboard. On the scale of chicklet
keyboards, I guess the CoCo's isn't too bad.
