Here is a stupid CoCo question, how does one go about buying this software
from them? I'm assuming the typical Tandy Sales drone will go, "Huh, nope,
we don't have any such product" (note this is just an assumption on my
part, I've been dealing with to many idiot computer salespeople lately).

So far all my hunting for Tandy stuff has resulted in a CoCo, a CoCo2 and a
grand total of two cartridges (found separate from the computers). I do
have a cassette deck and cable, but only because I bought them new for use
with my WP-2 a few years back when Tandy discontinued them.
