+Our chip simulator makes heavy use of the latest version of HTML5 drawing technology.
+<p>
+It will only run on recent browsers and on a computer with sufficient memory (we recommend at least 2Gbytes.)
+<p>
+We've tested it on Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera. Unfortunately Internet Explorer isn't yet capable of running the graphics.
+<p>
+If you're using one of the above browsers and having trouble, please restart the browser.
+<p>
+If you have a problem report or you're able to help us with compatilibity, please get in touch - our contact details are on the main page.
+<p>
+In the meantime, here's a picture of what you're missing:
