Hello Jean - 

CA>> I began with the 8 bit APPLE II+, then RS Color Computer,
CA>> and then Intel hardware. 

JP> A Coco ? I had the small brother to this one. Slapped on a
JP> 4k RAM module. What a performer ! +/- 1978 ? 

Yes, the Coco I. 

CA>> My CoCo had a word processor comparable to MSWord that was
CA>> a 40k binary. Makes your eyes water just to think about
CA>> it, or my eyes anyhow.

JP> My eyes too. I know what you mean. The whole of GEOS for the
JP> C=64 was on a 5 1/4" floppy. And there was room left. GEOS
JP> had Geowrite and that could do NLQ or Postscript to most
JP> printers of the day. Sigh ! 

Wasn't "The Quick Brown Fox" or something named like that the
most popular C64 word processor? I remember hearing about it
often enough.
