Hello all fellow coco-heads,
My name's Brett Gordon. I have recently signed up on the list at the
suggestion of Aaron Wolfe. I grew up in the 1980's with my CoCo2 (64K with
melted keys), and a Tandy cassette drive. About ten years ago a friend of
mine asked me to take good care of his CoCo3 setup, which got me started
with the 6809 again. I now sport a coco3 with a 2 meg disto upgrade, the
'87 Gime, a weird Disk controller (allows 2 DS IBM 360 drives, not 4 SS
?!?), and a nice big 20" NTSC RGB display.
My current project, and my favorite so far is a ANS compliant Forth for the
coco3. Which Arron suggested would make a neat "OpenBoot"-like system for
the CoCo. Anybody have suggestions how/where I could find information to
support IDE/DriveWire/SD in my forth?
I've been lurking 'round here for a couple of weeks, really enjoying the
technical discussions.
