Notes

A pre-production example of the module that let a ColecoVision play Atari 2600 cartridges - the product Atari sued Coleco over in 1982, settled out of court with Coleco licensing Atari's patents.

LITTLE IS RECORDED about the module's prototypes specifically. How this one differs from the shipped adapter - casing, board revision, connector - is not in the general accounts, and wants documenting from the unit itself. A second prototype is catalogued separately.
