For a short time I did have a Coco 3, but 1) Could never
get the memory upgade, 2) The monitor for the Coco 3 died
and 3)I never did get OS9/II.
The real computer system for the 6809 was not the COCO Crap
but stuff I am finding out only now from the outdated systems.
The COCO was marketed as home computer, thus games and BASIC
programs were the main market.
