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.

The Color Computer had a number of clones and relatives. All have some differences from the TRS-80/Tandy Color Computer, they also bear some significant resemblance and some degree of compatibility, whether because of a similar hardware design, a similar Microsoft BASIC, or the commonality of the OS-9 operating system.

Brazilian Clones
When it comes to clones, Brazil is a special case meriting its own category. From 1984 to 1992, Brazil had a strict policy of trade protectionism for computer hardware and software.[1] As a result, many globally important computer platforms of the era had Brazilian clones, and the CoCo was no exception, with several clones.
