[Coco] High speed tape mod...?

[haywire666 at aol.com]

I don't think the speed difference would be that great but I may buy one and see.

I just got back to my old coco3 and I only have a cassette now. Its okay, feels pretty retro. 
I haven't yet written any really long programs that take that long to load yet, so for me it may be a waste.


I suppose I just thought it was an interesting mod. I probably would have loved that back in the day. (when I was once 
stuck with just a cassette and DID write programs that took forever to load, at least as I recall!)

I bought one as a "collectors item" - I've never hooked it up or 
bothered with it otherwise...
