If you view the web pages source, you will find a "secret message" giving more
details.

If you go to:

http://www.aceshardware.com/

and scroll down to Thursday, November 25, 1999, there are even more details. It
looks like a lot of double talk to me. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for
Crusoe. Finally, If you speak german, you can try the links there at Ace's for
even more information. I hope this satisfies your curiousity.
