I am a physician, and for the most part, my medical library is reference material, not books that I sit down with and relaxedly peruse in the evenings. On CD-ROM, with good indexing, scanning, and viewing software, I would be willing to pay as much as text. (My 3-volume Anesthesiology reference text costs about $150!). At any rate, there are CERTAINLY good uses for text on CD-ROM. . . . . . . JimDoc
