Hi everyone,

I've finally updated my web pages. All the software is back on-line and
there are almost 100 COCO/COCO3 cartridges available (I think I have every
ROM made).

Version 2.10 of the Color computer 1 & 2  emulator is available for download
check the site for the new features.

Version 2.10 of the Color Computer 3 emulator is available for download on
my site for the first time since the 128k version was first made available
at last years COCOFest.

The COCO3 emulator supports 128k,512k & 2megs in MSDOS and Windows 9x. The
emulator runs in 2000 & XP but since they don't fully support DOS mode they
limit the emulator to 128k.

Both emulators now support emulation for the DS1315 clock chip (used by
cloud-9) and the Glenside's IDE interface. The emulator can support up to a
2gig virtual IDE drive. They also support the 6309 CPU. Drivers for the
clock and IDE interface are included in the distribution.

The COCO3 emulator fully supports NitrOS-9 6309 & 6809 Level 2. All testing
was done with the current version available from the NitrOS-9 Project site.

The emulators only require a 200mhz Pentium to run at 1.79mhz at 60FPS
(actually up to 8mhz depending on the COCO screen resolution). On my 866mhz
P3, the emulator in turbo mode runs at about 25mhz & 200FPS. When speed
counts the screen refresh can be set to 1FPS. The emulator then runs about
32mhz in turbo mode, prefect for long running programs.

I'll be at the COCOFest April 16 & 17 hope to see lots of people there.
