As the good Captain can relate to, I've been as busy as a one legged man in a butt kicking contest recently. Therefore, my CoCo time and internet time in general have been non-existant. Add to that, my PC crashed a week or so ago. 175GB of stuff just gone... Now I'm running on Windows 2000 with a 6GB drive. Talk about anemic computer systems (hmmm, might be a good name for a recycled system seller)...
Any way, I've seen a few things on eBay tonight that may generate a little interest. While I don't find any of it to be collectible, it is usable, which to me is more important...
Color Mouse for TRS-80 Coco
TRS-80 Multi-Pak Multipak Interface model 26-3024
This will need operated on to use with a CoCo3, but, seems to be in good condition.
4 COCO 3 GAMES RAD WARRIOR/MALCOM MORTAR/CASTLEOF
I can;t remember if CaptCPU posted these or not. These appear to be in great shape and I'd have to recant my statement about collectibility for this auction.
VINTAGE TRS-80 TANDY COLOR COMPUTER
This one caught my eye because of the keyboard. It doesn't look like any of the HJL keyboards and I do not recall any of the other aftermarket k/b's looking like this one. Then again, due to the angle of the picture, it could be just about anything...
TANDY COLOR COMPUTER 3 128K AND 7 GAMES AND MANUALS
A nice CoCo3 with everything you need to get started, including a couple of semi-rare games...
That's about all that caught my eye for now. Hopefully I'll be online more often in the coming days. My PC is still limping along and I'm at work more than home right now (I just HATE major network projects) so my internet time is going to be limited for a while. I'm hoping to be able to get back to the Model III repack, but, time will tell. On a personal note, many of my plans have been put on hold. I was notified last month that my job is being phased out due to a merger to be completed in late June. As such, much of my internet time will be in looking for a new job as it'll be a cold day in hades before I help then eliminate my job so I can go on unemployment. I've been there before, it's no fun...
Later, (B)

Hope it settles down for you, too, Brian! Blah! Tis the season. After T-Day I'm going to be hard pressed to even find some sleep. heh...
The keyboard, by the way, looks like the early Mark Data one. Good one, from what I hear, a pretty darn rare.
Angel's Luck,
Capt.
Hi Captcpu and Brian,
Brian I agree why would you give your current boss any help in the merger, If it means your only going to be shafted anyway, So yeah spend all the internet time finding new employment. I wish you well in your job hunt.
