This should probably be fixed - it's silly to have 99% conformance to
a defacto standard and then ruin it with a single entry. :)

Understood.  I assume that you're also doing this in SGML so that it
has a fair chance of eventually being integrated?

I suggest a link under the support page then, right next to the entry
for www.computerbits.com.  Do you have a sentence or two's worth of
descriptive HTML to tack in here, with appropriate URLs and such?
I'd be happy to add it.

And as far as feedback goes, it sure would be nice if you updated the
sysinstall screen shots to a) be of something a little more recent
vintage than 2.1.x and b) snapshot an actual working TCP setup screen
rather than the one you have now which has the old display bug and
looks terrible. :-)
