Those of you with the new CoCo III's, try this: While holding down
both the control and the alternate keys, hit the reset button.  The screen
will display a digitised portrait of the three programmers from Microware
who re-wrote color Basic for the CoCo III.

At Rainbowfest in Princeton, different Tandy officials cound not make up their
minds as to wether this was approved, or even KNOWN by Tandy before the machine
hit the streets!
