I am getting very interested in developing a multimedia application in one of several potential areas. In short, I'm fascinated by the potential and the technical challenges and I want to get into this technology. My question is: Where to start? I've read several books on DVI and CD-I and I am curious where else to look for information. Can anyone name some periodicals that support the field? Also, I don't often see equipment forsale in m.f.c -- is this because it isn't often sold used, or because that's the wrong place to look? Thanks much for any response. jclose@ads.com -- -----------------------------------=^=--------------------------------------- InterNet: jclose@potomac.ads.com | "That gum you like is going UUCP: sun!sundc!potomac!jclose | to come back in style.." --
