+    Version 1.4.1 is a minor release. It fixes install issues on
+    Windows and provides the missing TeleMetrum V2.0 firmware. There
+    aren't any changes to the firmware or host applications at
+    all. All Windows users will want to upgrade to get the signed
+    driver, but Mac and Linux users who do not need the TeleMetrum
+    V2.0 firmware image will not need to upgrade.

+         Provide signed Windows driver files. This should avoid any need to

+         Fix Java version detection and download. Previously, the
+         installer would only look for Java 6 or 7 and insist on
+         downloading its own Java bits if there was something else
+         installed. Furthermore, the 64-bit Java link provided didn't
+         work for anyone other than Keith, making it impossible to
+         install AltOS on any machine with Java SE 8 installed.

+         installers shipped this file. Now it's included in the AltOS
+         packages for Linux, Mac and Windows.
