Agree.  However, APEC's web page is very slow to respond and download
pages.  Most, but not all, of the information is duplicated on Skylinc's
web site at http://www.skylinc.com/wares.htm  (I say "not all" because
some of the links on this site are dead ends.)

Either here on P3D or on the web page, it is mentioned that the
old VR97 driver only supported 640x480, but the new driver does
support higher resolution.  I wrote to Albert asking if the new
driver could be downloaded from the web page, but the answer was
no.  It's not clear whether APEC is going to offer the new driver
to those who signed up for the free package offer, unfortunately.
