I have a Radio Shack Color Computer III with standard memory
(128k). I'm looking for some books that will tell me what
the guts are like. I would like a memory map and the function
and location of all the hardware ports and registers. Then I
can write machine language programs to exercise the CoCo.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

I have a copy of it and I think it was around $30 Cdn when I first got it. You may have to order it from Tandy's National parts depot since most stores will not order COCO stuff for you these days.
