V-View software

[Steve Hooley!]

        Absolutely - and it works great, both as a browser and magnifier

More than any time in history, mankind now faces a crossroads.  One
path leads to despair and utter hopelessness, the other to total
extinction.  Let us pray that we have the wisdom to choose correctly.
                -- Woody Allen
