No, that was the Commodore 64 until it proves otherwise. The CoCo2 is
still up in the air, though I am leaning towards "crap" because of the
limited video output capability ;)
BTW, Sellam, if you want a CoCo to mess with that has
just about any
kinda video you want, just get a CoCo3. It does TV/RF; Composite &
analog RGB which can be hooked up to the CM-8 from RS, or any Atari
ST/Amiga monitor (with the right cable, mind you) that can sync down to
NTSC levels (which are most all the earlier ones...)
I give very high marks to the CoCo3, but I am putting together the CoCo2
and the other systems for a friend of mine who needs them for a book
project.
