Monitor subscriber numbers up to 25000

Windmill launched Monitor in August 1998 and mailed it to just 42 people. Very soon after they started offering their data acquisition software suite free to everyone signing up. At that time it cost non-subscribers Euro 500,00 to purchase the software - so not surprisingly a great many people took advantage and tried the software for free. In fact, around 70% of subscribers still download the software and they've given away over 17000 copies of Windmill! Dedicated to PC-based data acquisition and control, Monitor is sent by e-mail every month.
