     Mark Nagel said that he felt that a CoCo III would be a "farce".
The Commodore C128 has sold over 600,000 units world-wide since its
introduction.  A CoCo III running OS-9 Level II, reasonably well designed
(not even an exceptional implimentation) would be a far more potent
machine and could easily account for a substantial chunk of sales.
A machine that makes money is no farce.

     Besides, I prefer the 6809 over the 68000.  It gives the impression
of being more orthogonal.

                                        Cheers! -- Jim O.
