[Coco] RadioShack returns...

[Bill Loguidice]

You know, the return of the CoCo would never fly, but certainly something
like an MCC-216, a low-cost programmable FPGA device, probably would,
especially since it both encourages a type of hacking and is something that
could be sold as a straight up product for non-casual consumers. The
MCC-216, for example, presently runs ZX Spectrum, C-64, Amiga, Apple II,
and Atari 2600 cores. No reason we couldn't eventually have CoCo family
cores created at some point...
