Well, aargh here. I have inspected my web logs, and I see that many have
looked at the thumbnails, but not the full-screen shots. Apologies if
anyone was disappointed there.
Sorry to all I didn't explain how it worked.
Click on the first thumbnail and you get a full screenshot of the first
slide, click the Next link for the rest until it gets to slide 30, then
UP, Page 2 and follow the rest.
Simple, but then I assumed... Blegh...Sigh.
...
However, I can report that Apache on Alpha VMS 7.3-1 has just delivered
a load of pages to the outside world, and continues to do so at this
moment; less than 5% CPU usage over several hours, even when I've been
hammering it on other things.
