Rory,

"Dead", the CoCo is not (just ask all of the people who are using it right
now!).

The CoCo line is being allowed to go SOWG (Sold Out When Gone) and there's no
replacement coming from Radio Shack, so the chances of seeing anything new from
Fort Worth are slim to absolutely none.

Of course, you can still buy TRS-80 Model 1 parts from Tandy, today, so the
technical support for the computer will continue for a while.

What next?  You can (a) stay with the CoCo or (b) go to another platform. If
you're interested in OS-9, there are much worse platforms to use than a CoCo-3
running OS-9 level 2.
