Let's go one step further and make the website ROM-based ;-) Even
better, let's put the pages on some sort of non-volatile RAM with
a "Write Enable" jumper. Then, when a page change is needed, we'll
only need to open the case, put the jumper on, make the changes,
remove the jumper, close the case... All performance problems
inherent to CD-ROM speed are gone !!! :-)

Sorry, it was stronger than myself....

Miguel
