Can someone tell me these are the right version?

1 Color Basic v1.4
2 Extended Basic v2.0
3 Disk Basic v1.1

Is Extended Basic a replacement for Color Basic?

I'm going to buy one if I can find a good Coco 3 and I going to get a 512k memory addon, SuperIDE Controller Floppy Controller.

Later I will get OS-9 OS for the Coco3

I found out the Coco3 needs no upgrade at all. It has Super Color Extended BASIC ROM and Disk Controller Disk BASIC ROM.

I just got a HP L1506 LCD Monitor today for a Coco 3 Computer. I am going to get a Coco SDC and looking to get the 512 memory upgrade too.

Well I have a Coco3 with 512k with all manuals and I even have a Modem Pak now. I want to be able to use my PC LCD Monitor when I get the cable. I want to get Drivewire or CocoSDC. I think it will be CocoSDC that way I won't another Computer to use my Coco3.

Since I now have a Coco2 and Coco3 I might try to link them together threw the RS-232 port.
