Just thought I'd say hi and give you a brief history.
My Dad got given a Dragon 32 as part payment for a job in 1982 which was handed to me and my younger brother as we "knew about games"...which I still have, in the loft. Plus games, books, joysticks, leads etc etc. The bonus was having a mate who's Dad travelled a lot in America so we got loads of lovely CoCo games to play with as well.
I'm very glad to see a community here and also that you are trying to preserve the history and games for a machine that we both loved, and still do.
I will, of course, dig out the old girl when I put the crimbo decs back, and fire her up and list what I can find, if of course you lot are interested!
One question...
Will I still need a rubbish tv to play them on or will modern tv's pick up the signal?
I will continue to browse the wiki, chip in when I can (very limited knowledge) and maybe try and fathom out the emulator!
Cheers,
Noel
