"Token Ring" - That sounds "dinosaur" and "exclusive" at the same time - I would like to rip that one apart to see how it worked. :D

You can dedicate 256 addresses in the ROM area for “writing”.
Reading any of this addresses writes the corresponding value (0 to 255) to the register of device connected to the ROM port.
