Haha, it was "Write Once", not "Write Only". :lol:

The official name was WCS "Writable Control Store"

I don't know where WOM came from, but it was incorrect as the memory could be written to more than once. It was memory that could be write protected, you could use it as normal ram & some readysoft programs supposedly did so.
 
 http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/DumpA1000BootROM claims it can re enable write access to WCS as well.

The acronym WOM has been applied to real write once memory though http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/login.jsp?tp=&arnumber=6203417&url=http%3A%2F%2Fieeexplore.ieee.org%2Fiel5%2F18%2F4667673%2F06203417.pdf%3Farnumber%3D6203417
