what a great source page! and thank you for the links.
i know that the LCD maker can make pixel font data for LCD. However, i was wondering if you knew how high the quality is? Since, it only costs $38 i am not sure the quality will be great.
Also, it is compatible with Win98, WinMe, Win2000, and WinXP. Is there no newer version compatible with WinVista?
Thank you in advance,
Brandon L.
Its a nice and interesting blog!
