2026-03-12: Cocopedia.com is now using a new caching system that should make things faster. Please let me know if you encounter any new issues.

2026-03-15: MediaWiki has been reinstalled and the old database and files restored. It was pretty clogged up from being upgraded so many times since 2004. I am also testing out Cloudflare to see if it can prevent the 'bot assaults that took the site down last year.

Editor: We enjoyed the RAINBOW very much. I'm into ways the Color Computer can help. around the house and my husband is really into games.

Do you know of a PACMAN game that is available?

Editor: I am a first time computer user and feel frustrated by the magazines as all the information is written for other Computers.

What I would really like is a list of functions for model I and III and the same set of commands for my color computer.

JAMES BAUMER Spokane, WA

Editor: I recently purchased a copy of the RAINBOW (03) and was quite pleased with the articles and especially with LASER STAR.

Just one comment about the last issue: In line 10 of the Graphics Printer, shouldn't. '127' be '31'? Also, your choice of X for the vertical and Y for the horizontal coordinates is confusing. Normally, X is the horizontal.

KATHY GREBEL Detroit

(Ed. Note: '31' works, too. Thanks for the information. As to the X and Y. you're right. It must have been a late night when that one was written!)
