Hi,

The unending discussion about the CoCo4 has heated up again just now.

---------------------
Hi,

It has been quite a long time since a message has been posted to
bit.listserv.coco telling anyone interested that we have moved our
discussions elsewhere.

http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco

Has information about the "CoCoList for Color Computer Enthusiasts" list.

The list is echoed to "gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco" on the
"news.gmane.org" server.

Go To

http://news.gmane.org/

And enter "CoCo" into the search box and you will find the CoCo list

"47007 gmane.comp.hardware.tandy.coco Tandy Color Computer (CoCo) List"

There are several Yahoo groups also.

The number of web sites is amazing including: http://www.coco3.com/
