Personally I would like to thank for *all* people who helped/developed this
project.

Well, many people can (and they often do!) ask (even me): "why is it usefull
to take care about 'so old' machines, even the slowest/cheapest buyable
machine (which is cheaper than buying a C64 on e-bay) nowdays has much-much
more power than these machines!".  But as usual, I always stuck with another
question instead: what's the point of collecting stamps?  Or anything else? 
I guess this is a hobby, and not so much to do with any "logical reason" but
the personal enjoyment like with other hobbies (usually).
