How about this idea: hook the tape-out jack on your II (or other old
computer) to the mic-in jack on your other computer's sound card, save the
program squawks in a WAV file, and then burn that onto an audio CD?  (Come
to think of it, that'd be good for archiving the CoCo programs I have on
tape already...wish I had thought of this sooner.  It'd also provide faster
access than tape...just skip to the track you want and begin loading.)
