This page will give more data on the article than I was capable of printing in
the magazine, mostly because of space limitatons. Each issue will also have a text
file called "oopsies" that list the inevitable gremlins that sneak in to the
process and gum up some very necessary bit of information that was either inadvertently
deleted or was just plain wrong. A file with oopsies is indicated ** thus.
You will need some programs to use the files on these data pages. Mostly, they
are freebies or demo programs that allow you to read the file in it's original format.
What I've found is that trying to put technical files into some format other than
the format I originally used is guaranteed to cob up the works. Click here to go to the locations for downloading programs you
will need to use this website.
(Note -- because of the large graphic content of most
articles, they can be slow to load. Approximate load time at 28.8 speed is
given for each page.)
