Mike,
Sure the CD32 can handle Kodak Photo CD. The CD32 is a Dual Speed MultSession
Drive. You will however need some software.
If you have ImageFX, there is a shareware Loader which will allow you to load
the Kodak Photo CD software and convert it to other formats, resize it, and
various other manipulations from ImageFx.
If you do not have ImageFX, I beleive there is other software which will alow
it.
The CD32 is capable of reading the fresh fish CD ROMS, but there is one
problem. The fresh fish CD ROM is not bootable, therefore you will need either
an SX-1 Unit with a disk drive for booting WorkBench or a CD ROM that gets
round the reset problem, as when you boot up with a booting CD ROM and then
take it out to replace it with a non-booting CD ROM you will find that the
machine resets. Aggghhhh!!! Bugger eh!
But no probs, get hold of a copy of CD32Bits July edition, should be in the
File List, this contains reviews on a CD that will enable you to get round the
reset problem and network the CD32 to an Amiga and transfer the files accross
without the SX-1 unit.
Leeroy!
