[Coco] CoCoFEST! Preparation

[johnmarkmelanie at gmail.com]

All,

As part of CoCoFEST! preparation you may need something to get you in the
proper 1980's mindset. Perhaps you can start planning a music playlist or
perhaps there a few movies you can watch. The TRS-80 Model 1 Computer came
out in 1977. The CoCo was sold from 1980 to 1991. So, this is a good range
of dates to work with.

I like the song "99 Red Balloons" because of the line that reads "bugs in
the software flashed a message something out there".
