This issue focused more on programs that could move your files from Disk Extended Color BASIC discs to OS-9 disks (their formats weren’t compatible), although they weren’t offered as “type-ins.” Lonnie Falk’s editorial mentioned working examples of all three “Color Computer successors” were in the Falsoft office, and that the Delmar System IV featured the month before had started as an “industrial” computer adapted to home (hobbyist) users.
