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 included ROM was based on the same software base as the Deluxe RS232 Pak and the earlier Videotex software, but had some nice additions such as true lowercase support. Much like the Deluxe RS232 Pak, it was based on the 6551 ACAI chip, only with a base IO address of $FF6C instead of $FF68. By mod..."
