Welcome to Weaver's World
VDU was originally created on my little 486DX2/66 at home - then from a Gateway Pentium II (128Mb RAM and 6.4Gb HDD) on its 17" monitor, then my Dell Pentium III 1000MHz (128Mb RAM, 10Gb HDD) notebook, an Acer Pentium 4 3GHz (1Gb RAM, 120Gb HDD)and now a Dell. The site was only a few pages to begin with, but has grown in a fairly ad hoc fashion. Because of this, the design "theme" had become a little hazy as I kept changing my mind on what looked good. However, I have decided to try a new style (new for 2009). Intentions are important. I do NOT see the pages on a Macintosh but on the whole they have been designed for Internet Explorer 7.0 and Google Chrome. I do appreciate any comments about how you receive the pages because then I can try and spruce up the design accordingly. I'm not a teacher (although all researchers do teach to some degree), a graphic designer (although I like to play), a computer expert (faaaarrrrrr from it) or a literary scholar (hence the occasional typos) but I do have a desire to try and get across some of the information that various people have for years tried to place in my head, or that I have simply picked up in the course of my research. Most of the information pages do NOT have references - at this stage the site is pieced together from many and varied sources, and re-written in my own "style". References may be added later, but I do not intend these pages to be a one-stop shop for homework or assignments - merely a way of conveying the ideas behind virus-related stuff. If you need references for research purposes then I would hope you are able to track down the information the same way I did. I hope these pages can bring a little closer the local, and perhaps global scientific community. Enjoy
