Barbara, Hmmm – unfortunately, I don't know any more about PRODUCING CD-ROMS than you do, other than I know it takes an expensive piece of equipment. I believe that there are "CD-ROM production houses", but don't know of any right offhand. I would imagine that making a CD-ROM would be like writing to a laser disk. I know a little about CD-ROMS, but not as much as others do, I am sure. There ARE different "formats", however, so you need to keep that in mind. I think that the ISO-whatever standard is more platform independent than some of the other formats, but this is just for the storing of the data on the disks. What is more of a compatibility problem is the software required to USE what is on the CD-ROM, and the format and size of special data files (eg; pictures, sounds, graphic brushes). You might get someone to produce a CD-ROM based upon Amiga images, et cetera, that a PC CD-ROM player wouldn't know how to handle, and vice versa. On the other hand, if someone else can help you to find a happy common ground between Amiga CD-ROM usage and PC CD-ROM usage, then you might 'be in business'. The A1200 WOULD be a nice "system solution", and perhaps you could find more than just MM on the A1200's that could be of use (?). Real World:southern Illinois,USA Internet:ca0008 at siucvmb.siu.edu
