I was wondering if anyone might be able to give me any information on
how I can program my Plug 'n Power TRS-80 Color Computer controller
with my Coco 3. I am interested in anything I can get from peeks and
pokes up to interactive programs and OS-9 drivers.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME?

Thanks for reminding me, I was going to post this very same request. I am especially interested in talking to my Plug-N-Power from OS9 level 2 (Color Computer 2). However, I have a few extra questions: a) My "config/boot" diskette that came with my coco-os9 v2 update seems to boot and test my disk, (i.e., "DOS<CR>RUN "*"<CR>" works. But, I can't get it to boot up, all I can get it to is the "Boot os9/ test disk drive" menu. Yet I need to config T2 to enable my second terminal, (i.e. I'm using /TERM, /T1 and would like to use /T2). b) Where can I get a cheap hard disk for this thing as well as the hard disk interface, and what will work with my os9 level 2 without my having to write a driver? c) Is there a COCO site on the net that I can get P.D. software from? Or a good second hand source? Also spare useful hardware "hack" information would be great. (Like adding a ram disk, or some such)... Thank you for your time, and please forgive the cross posting, most of this applies to the groups specified. Thanks again, -- Shawn p.s. If the net fails, please try: Shawn Mckay 20 Hillside Way Wilmington, Mass 01887 Please feel free to give this address to any favorite sales types for the coco. Thanks.
