Well, that is my remembrance of the device. Maybe I had a defective one?
Like I said earlier, once I set up OS-9 L1 R2 with a 64 by 24 driver on a
CoCo 2 with a monochrome monitor driver, I stopped messing with the
WORD-PAK. And it was not long after that I was messing with a CoCo 3. And
all of that was 10 years or so behind the curve. Seeing as I got my first
CoCo 3 from a friend who found it at the dump, with it's hard drive and
associated hardware, software and documentation somewhere around 1994.
