Has anyone tried any of the CDROM systems that inter- face to computers? I am thinking in particular of the Gro- lier encyclopedia. I understand that a number of publishers are going to make discs available. If I get enough info I will summarize. Robert S.

We have a ROMULUS CDROM that we are in the process of evaluating. The Grolier Encyclopedia is an excellent example of the type and quantity of information storage that can be presented in the CDROM format. Note that this is a "Text only" system...no pictures.
