Cool! Any links?

The CoCo never really made it big in Europe - the
kinda-sorta-compatible Dragon 32 and 64 were bigger, and they were
minority machines.

But there's amazing, inspiring stuff being done on '80s 8-bitters
these days: I've personally Tweeted from a Sinclair ZX Spectrum that
was connected to the Internet over broadband by an Ethernet adaptor
and a TCP/IP stack. Just incredible.

There's similar stuff on the Commodore 64.

The Acorn BBC Micro now can have 1MB of RAM, Flash storage and a
working USB port.

Got any links to the state of the CoCo art, at all?
