   Actually, it's just that I've not run across the drive and/or controller
yet. I recall seeing the items years ago on the clearance shelf of a local
Radio Shack, and could kick myself for not picking them up...then again, I
didn't have a CoCo at that point either. It brings to mind that I saw a whole
bunch of TRS-80 bus mice for the Model 2000 at the military exchange in
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba about 1990 or so...long after they became hard to find
here in the U.S. I had just gotten rid of my Model 2000, so didn't bother
picking any of them up either.
