[Coco] Which do you prefer and why? CoCo 1/2/3

[Bill Nobel]

Hi John

  I started many years ago with a Coco 1, then migrated to the 2 and finally a 3.  I also did get a TC-9 from Frank Hogg which eventually died.  I donated that to Mark Marlette at Cloud9 to add to his collection for preservation.  I currently have a 64k Coco 2 & a 512k Coco 3 with SDC.  Also I have acquired Roger Taylor’s Coco on a chip  FPGA.  My main machine now is the Coco on a Chip (because of the 80x60 text), but the Coco 3 sits right beside it and used at the same time.

Hi,  I have two Coco3 with 512KB and a Coco on a chip (Altera DE0-Nano FPGA board).  I got a Coco3 when I was young.  I use it for BASIC programming, gaming and wordprocessing my homeworks.  It was not easy to do wordprocessing in French with a Coco3.  At first I did it in BASIC with some CHR$ command.  Then I found a way to program some special characters with my Scripsit II cartridge but I forgot how I did it.
