Color
Accessories

devices,
such
as
a
printer
or
cassette
recorder, you
can
add to
your
computer to
increase
its
usefulness in

storage.
The Color
Computer 3
contains
the necessary
interfaces to
simplify
the addition
of
many
accessories.
Joystick
Controllers.
Adding
a
pair
of joystick
controllers gives you
yet
another
means of
entering
information and
controlling
the
computer. The
joysticks
include
fire-when-ready buttons and two-
dimensional
control
sticks.

the
Multi-Pak
Interface
(26-3124),
you can
connect as
many
as
four
Program
Paks and/or interface controllers
to your
Color
Computer at
once.
Therefore, frequently-used
program
paks
do
not
have
to be
removed
and reinserted over and over
again.
Cassette.
For long-term
storage
of programs and data,
connect
a
cassette recorder to the

minute. The
