Hello everybody in the COCO community... I'm asking for help... I own a COCO-2, with 64k ram and a disk drive (single-sided), but I ain't got any software for it... I know it's an old machine, but I guess it's a very strong machine... I had even ran OS-9 level I on her... Now I'm working with IBM AT and DOS and Windows 3.1, but I want my child to play and learn computer using the COCO, I think it's more suitable for children... so, if it is possible, I do want you all to send me some computer games for the COCO-2... I can get an IBM program called COCOUTIL, which emmulates a COCO drive on an IBM, so I can easily transfer a software from my IBM to my COCO... Can anybody help me?... Oh, I beg you pardon... let me introduce myself to you... My name is Luis Burgos San Pedro... I'm a 30 years old electronics engeneer, who worked for 7 years as a professor at Havana University (ISPJAE), teaching electronics... now I get my money projecting automation systems for the national mechanic industry. I live in Havana, Cuba. I'm sorry 'bout my english... it's so bad... but I have never studied english at all... (you don't need to be too smart to notice it)... I learnt it by myself listening songs, reading newspapers, magazines and so on... excuse me. (I even read some Rainbow magazines about COCOs) Please, if someone wants to answer me (and I would apreciate it very much, 'cause I need it too much by now), please, write directly to my electronic address, because I'm not subscribed to any list... remember it's a HELP!!! message. My e-mail add is: lburgos@infomed.cu All my addresses and means to contact me, are in the box below... I would apreciate very much any answer, even if it says "I'm sorry, I can't send you anything" but I'll prefer instead "Ok boy, get that game, it's only the begining, stand by..." In any case, thank you all for reading my message and... if you like it, you can count with a new friend. So long... I'm waiting... Remember I was a COCO programmer too (Extended Color Basic and MC6809E assembler language) ... And please, answer DIRECTLY, I don't belong to any list. I would appreciate any kind of games, but I would nicely receive all other kind of software for painting, composing music, printed circuit designing, and all kind of software you want to send me for free... it's a shame, but we've got no dollars in Cuba and my money is like a wet paper outside our borders (...and even inside), ask me for any other kind of contribution if you want to. Thank you very much and... success in your life. Burgos ******************************************************************************* Luis A.
