Top 10 Holy Grails of Classic Microcomputer Collecting

I'd love a Tandy Deluxe Color Computer (can anybody give me a list  
 I _think_ it was halfway between the CoCo 2 and the CoCo3. It was limited to
 64K RAM but had lower-case text (and maybe 80 columns and better 
 graphics).  
If you look at some of the OS9 header files included with Level 1 v2.0, you
also get the idea that it was going to have a real serial port (6551),
instead of the bit-banger.

The little snippets I've seen also indicate a CoCo3-like keyboard (black
instead of grey) and a big suare logo (instead of the wide one).

What I don't remember is whether it was to be more like the CoCo3 or a
cross between the CoCo 2B and the Dragon.

You may want to check DejaNews for back articles in comp.sys.tandy by 
Frank Durda. I think he might have written one which summarized the beast.
