Needless to say that not for all of the items every bit of information is available. Whereas some materials come along with detailed notes and specifications, others are presented by the vendors in a rather spartan attire. Thus quite a few entries listed below may lack one or the other "tag", implying that no information could be obtained to fill the respective field. Note that the arrangement of items is rather at random, and not in alphabetical or subject order (as the bibliography grows readjustments and a re-grouping may be a wise thing to do). Some of the comments on the respective items come from first-hand experience, while other commentaries may be extracted from a leaflet or an advance advertisement. This may account for the "uneven" reporting on the various products. Should some reader/user observe errors in the present list or have more detailed information on those items listed here or on newer versions and releases I would be grateful for notification.
