I know, I lived through it. And the summary completely left out the most important one- the Tandy CoCo 2 (which yes, I bought, as an upgrade from the CoCo 1):)
A few years later and the CoCo 3, running OS-9 (level 2) from Microware, which blew the doors off anything around at the time (Commodore couldn't come close to that functionality). Much of the power of Unix, but on a tiny home computer

This kind of cultish behavior is why the coco cultists were regularly beat up by the other nerds . . . :)
