One of the local RS stores is having a "Grand Opening".  It's selling
a CoCo3 (128K) for $99 CDN (say $75-80 US).  Is this a good buy, or
should I wait for Christmas (a previous posting, lost in the mists of
time, commented that there may be a Christmas push on CoCos).  I'd
really LIKE a "real" UNIX box, but my income can't match that outgo.
Incidentally, once you add $$ for hard drive, RS232, etc. support,
how much will a CoCo system cost?
	Sort of testing the waters before I dive in (maybe to drown?)
