Coco variations (was: Proper name for Tandy Color Computer?

I found it in the 1983 Standard catalog, and the 1984 Radio Shack "Computers" Catalog - the Videotex Terminal shown in the Catalogs is the silver CoCo case with the chicklet keys. It does not appear in the 1984 standard Catalog. I also have a correction to make, the white 64K CoCo (1) DOES appear in both the standard 1984 Catalog and the 1984 "TRS-80 Computers" catalog - it is the last CoCo shown, AFTER the CoCo2, and the photo is at such a perspective that it is not obvious that the case is deeper - however the vent. holes are different on the CoCo1 (along the sides at the top) and the CoCo2 (across the top), and once I looked closer, I realized this is actally the white CoCo1 - Although the text mentions "Color Computer 2 disk system and other peripherals", the machine is actually called "54K Color Computer" - NOT "Color Computer 2" as is indicated in the previous pages depicting the CoCo2. It is also more expensive that the CoCo2's shown $599 .vs. $349 and $459 (Canadian prices) - presumably because it has 64K of RAM and includes the Extended BASIC - for all these reasons, I just assumed it was the top end CoCo2 - but it's actually the "white CoCo1". A 64K RAM option was not offered in the 1983 Catalog (Silver machines), but a 64K upgrade for "existing 4k, 16k or 32k Color Computers" was offered in the 1984. The only CoCo1 offered in 1984 is the white 64k machine.
