| 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. 2026-03-16: Special thanks to Don Barber for hosting a backup mirror of CoCopedia: https://cocopedia.dgb3.net |

For the cartridge doors, I sacrificed the case from a dead multipak and cut the entire door assembly out of it. It's held in the PC's front cover by some small screws and hot-melt glue (wonderful stuff). | |||
The "sans CD-Rom" repack adapter includes my clone of the Tandy Hi-Res interface. I wanted it on the same circuit board as the other I/O connectors, for obvious reasons.

My homemade keyboard... still not quite complete after several years. (I still need to make a top cover for it). Click for a closer view of the wiring. I forget what the keyboard came out of, but it's an old one with a good solid feel to it. It took me a little time to wire up but it was well worth it. It works great and I love it! | |||
