Where are the COCO sites?

[Classic Pac]

I know this sounds dumb to you long time computer fans. Where are the COCO sites. I was messaging another COCO owner like me on another board and he didn't know either. Are there any? No search engine I ever used was capable of finding just one.

What the hell does this have to do with A8 computers? Can't you post this on Classic Gaming General? Sheesh...

I'm not a huge fan of the Coco. Although it used a decent CPU, the rest of the design was total crap. The Coco 3 was better, but by that time there were much better choices.

You need to search for color computer and not TRS 80. This site is great for screenshots of games (cart, tape, disk):

I think you posted to me on DP (about my Dragon question)?

 

Take care,

Lots of opinions being again, passed around as facts.

 

I had both an Atari 130XE and a Co Co 3. There were things I totally dug about both.

Start a Coco topic in the Atari 8-bit forum and you get what you get. The 6809 is a great chip, but the minimalistic archetecture of the Coco 1 & 2 (based on Motorola's sample circuit designs) was no match for the dedicated hardware of the Atari 800 and Commodore 64. I did, however, say that the Coco 3 was an improvement. It was closer to the ST's hardware but with an 8-bit CPU.
