A year ends. And a new starts in some hours.
This was such a successful year, I won't believe myself.
7604 visitors in December ! If someone had told me this some time ago I'd
called him crazy.
Many info's added. Also more than 50 pics. I still don't provide drivers
for the hardware, but on request I'll send the links. Drivers may come in
the late 2001. First is the migration to ASP.
