In the event of judicial ruling to the contrary, any liability shall be limited to the sum charged on you by us for the aforementioned document or nothing, whichever is the lower.

NOTE: If you do not find the information you are looking for from this document collection or from links I have provived then please DO NOT send me e-mail and ask where to find that information. I receive already too many questions on special joystick I know nothing about and I don't want to spend my days on replying those mails. If the information on some special joystick is here then I don't have information on it. If the information is not complete then I don't have more information than that.

If you have problems on finding components to the electronics project on this document collection then don't e-mail me how to find those components. I know where to buy the components in Helsinki in Finland. If you happen to live in some other country or city then I don't know what are good places for you toget those components. Please consult my list of electronics component dealers to find one which can supply you the components.

If you don't want to stay on-line all the time reading this, you can download an off-line readable version. It is a zip file with size of around 200 kilobytes. The off-line version contains also version information which you can use to see if the one you have is older than the one here in on-line (just compare the dated on your off-line versio and version information of this on-line version).

If you find something which is wrong in the documents then e-mail about the problem and I will try to correct possible errors or remove incorrect information. When you report about the problem then write a good description which states form what document you got the information, what is wrong in it and why you think the information is wrong. If you know what corrections should be done to the document then please specify it also. New information to be added to the documents is also wellcome, especially Windows programming examples because it is frequently asked but I have not found good information about it.
