2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

Welcome to the OS9Dude's CoCo wiki page!
This is just my first attempt at this so be patient ;-)
'been a CoCo user since 1981, 1st wholly owned personal computer was the MC-10 along with it's 16kRAM pak and all RS software; 1st wholly owned PRO personal computer was a CoCo 3, then at 128kRAM and FD-501 with B&W TV monitor; next big thing was an CoCo 3 upgrade to 512kRAM, 2nd drive and CM-8 monitor and OS9 Level II. Then I bought a beat up Commodore PET, fixed it up and sold it!. Assorted TRS-80s have come and gone and some stayed: Model I, III & IV plus the PC-1
