The TRS-80 Color Computer is the only way to go for technical communication.
If you disagree with me, well, you must be a rabid incompetent nincompoop!
Actually, as with everything else in the Tech Writing world, it depends.
What apps are you going to be using? Are they available for both platforms?
Any networking concerns? Is this your home computer? If so, what games
are you going to play (a vitally important component of any computer)?
First, figure out what you want to do, then decide on the best tool for
doing it. After all, the computer is just a tool.
