What started out as a simple question from a visitor to my website (thanks for the sleepless nights, Loris!), turned into the fairly major undertaking you see here. The preceding chart was put together through the help of many individuals I've contacted, and many smaller bits of information gleaned from hundreds of other websites and tech manuals. It is still very much under construction. If you see any mistakes or omissions, please don't hesitate to let me know, and it will be promptly corrected/added. I would like to thank the following sources for their contributions:
