THIS PROJECT IS IN A PRE-ALPHA STATE:
Many glitches exist in the system.
You will experience deja vu frequently.
For some yet unknown reason VICE has the tendency to lockup after you've logged into the main Q-Link screen. We've found that 'mashing' the F5 button at the welcome screen seems to take care of this problem
NOTE:
Always keep a backup copy of your clean Qlink disk.
