Yes, I used a color TV as display-weren't any color monitors at that time :) I learned Basic on it as well. I also tried my hand at a little assembler. Motorola was nice for this. They kept the same opcodes across uP's as much as possible. They also used memory mapped I/O which I liked better than the interrupt driven I/O Intel used. Could use POKE to put hex into memory then GOSUB to run routine. I never purchased the floppy or hard drive controllers, just used audio cassette tape to save programs and data. I think my Rainbow magazines have all been thrown. <on topic> Wonder if anyone has tried port Linux kernel to the CoCo? heh! Bob Samuel MacDonald wrote: > It's a CoCo! > > I had a CoCo!
