Personal review

Somehow, with a vastly superior CPU and more memory, this is a cut down slower version than the Apple ][ version. There are 4 chips instead of 8 and fewer gates in the toolbox. And it's slow. But it is still Robot Odyssey and still awesome. Just a slower awesome.

The slowness must be a result of being framesynced to the Coco's infamous graphic hardware bottleneck.
