     [Moderator note: This never works for me.  I have to login at 
http://shop.mensys.nl/indexuk.html and go through "Your Downloads" 
next "Software Subscription Services for eComStation 1.2 " then 
"Access eComStation BetaZone".]
  * Let's collect ACPI tools here: http://ecomstation.ru/acpitools
