Despite this stuff being out in public view as a links list, part of it is behind a firewall, and so guaranteed to be useless to outsiders. Sorry. I just decided to keep my bookmark files on my ISP instead of at work, far away from bookmark eating browser crashes, and having an exception would cause a mess for my use from work.

Since I no longer work at Whistle/IBM, the internal stuff is now useless to me, as well.

• A site for a group of volunteers which is attempting to keep the very nice, but no longer vendor-supported Whistle Interjet hardware on whose software I once worked, useful, with reverse engineering enterprises that let it be filled with new software and more easily accessed by its owners, turning it from an appliance back into a fully useable computer.
