Why should you donate when these drivers are already free to download?
A file on a computer is usually measured in Kb's, these represents the measurement known as a "Kilobyte". Download speed is usually measured in seconds, so Kb/s represents "Kilobits per second". Kilobytes and Kilobits are very different, but for the sake of simplicity and brevity, lets just assume that they are very close in terms of time spent during transmission of data. Without a priority download, your download speed will be limited to 1 Kb/s. This speed is approximately 20% of the fastest possible speed achievable by a dial up connection due to the bandwidth limitations of the phone line cords wiring design. 1 Kb/s is roughly 1% of the top speed achievable through a high speed internet connection like DSL or Cable broadband. In short, DOWNLOADING OUR DEVICE DRIVER FILES AT ONLY ONE KB/s IS EXTREMLY SLOW! How much money does this web site make? Originally, people could download as fast as they wanted, as often as they wanted, free of charge, all while we were asking for donations. After 6 months of NO DONATIONS AT ALL, we were approximately $250 worth of bandwidth in debt. On top of that, the time invested on this web site was astronomical due to all the device driver requests that we recieved on a daily basis. While trying to keep the site fast and free, we tried to include advertisments from sponsors so that everyone could benefit, but after nearly a year, the total revenues from advertisements are only about $40. So after nearly a year, this site has made about $60 in total donations, and about $40 in advertising revenues, while racking up 25+ GB of bandwidth per month on average, which is roughly about $40 a month for the Knowledge Innovation Design, Incorporated network structure requirements to maintain this device drivers web site. So how much has this web site made for the countless man hours and seemingly endless free technical support given to donors and non donors alike? The answer: $100 - $400+ = negative $300+ dollars. Please donate! Why do you have different levels of donations? PayPal handles all transactions and charges fees and a percentage for ever transaction. if you donate a single dollar, this web site only sees 67 cents of it, but if you donate five dollars this site sees $4.50 of it. If a super special donor donates $10 to our device drivers web site, we see $9.41 of it. So obviously, we want to reward our better donors with more benefits, while still giving benefits to those generous enough to donate a lesser amount. This system was implemented because it seems unfair in the previous single donor level system. Before, someone who donated $3 could download just as fast as someone who donated $10. Now the system is tiered so that those who donate more are rewarded more, while still rewarding those who donate lesser amounts. Level 1 donors get device driver downloads twice as fast as non donors, While Level 2 donors get the following benefits: Dial-up users with a 56Kbps Modem are able to achieve speeds of up to around 5.2 Kb/s which would mean getting your driver over 5 times faster! High Speed users with Satellite, Cable Modems and DSL can download at speeds of up to 20KB/s from this server. With a donation, your getting your driver up to 20 TIMES FASTER! Level 3 donors are for those that wish to show their support and appreciation by donating extra. These incredible people will be able to download as many device drivers as they need as fast as our servers will transfer the device drivers for an enitre month! If you are a Level 3 donor and you come back to the site after 3, 4 even 15 months later, simply drop us an email and we will grant you access to our servers to allow you to download anythign else you may need.

Why do you ask for donations? Don't you make enough money from your advertisements? Due to lack of donation, we have been forced to cut back on our bandwidth. This site began posting drivers on the web in late 2002, and became extremely popular around February 2003. Due to this web sites popularity, many requests for drivers to be posted here have been honored and new additions have been added without request as well. Originally, anyone could download these drivers at speeds in excess of 40 KB/s! Some of the drivers for these devices are very large in file size and downloading these drivers SERIOUSLY eats up the available bandwidth that has associated costs with it. For this reason we have been requesting that people make a small donation help maintain the costs associated with running this site. Since we began this "donations only" campaign in March of 2003, Addendum: THANKS SO MUCH TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE MADE DONATIONS IN OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER!!! Due to the lack of funds, we have attempted getting involved with affiliate programs that would be attractive to people that are looking for devices drivers for free on the web. Since we started this affiliate marketing campaign in late April of 2003, In short, This site still has a long way to go to earn any kind of profit, but that isn't what this site is about. The internet is a great resource and information is a very valuable tool. We want to be able to offer free stuff to visitors and keep the internet affordable for everyone. Without web sites like this one, device drivers cost end up costing a fortune! Many companies sell their device drivers on CD and mail them to the customer, while not offering a free method of getting the device to work! The little money that is earned by the affiliate programs will go towards the hosting costs and software expenses for the design of the site. It is our hopes that someday this website will be able to sustain itself completely on a high powered web host with infinite bandwidth available. We can get there, but we need your help! Please donate! If you can't donate, then please visit our sponsors by clicking on the advertisments, and even better, sign up for the free trial that many of them offer. When you do that, we get a small credit to our account, and then put that money back into this web site! Click here to visit the main Knowledge Innovation Design, Incorporated home page adapter,
