Thanks for the reply, Martin. One of the Genelogy publication that I
subscribe to had a CDROM that contains information for almost 1 million
ansestors that were submitted by subscribers. Now that I know that I can
at least read the data I will go ahead and order it. I know that I can't
execute programs on the IBM CDROM's. Has anyone thought about using
something like AmigaVision or the Director to simulate some of the CDTV
actions so we can have easy access to all of that data? The IBM that I
have access to has a standard SCSI interface. I know that CDROMs for the
IBM's usually have a special interface, but since I would be using the
standard SCSI disk controller do I still need a special driver? Steve
