This is a re-write of the Color 64 BBS manual (dated July 2025) to incorporate specifics to version 8.1a into the main content of the document. Additionally, lots of screen captures and research has been incorporated into the document. It is in the early-release phase as further editing occurs, but can stand on it's own for soon-to-be and current Color 64 BBS 8.1a sysops!
