This week's InfoWorld, UNIX News section on pg. 44, describes Sun's
impending CD ROM for the SPARCstation.  I have two questions:

1. Two companies called Young Minds, Inc. and  Architectural Synthesis
Inc., have announced they will be porting their software products to the
CD ROM.  Young Minds produces the GNU Suite, a collection of public domain
s/w as well as Net News, a collection of seven years of Usenet messages.
Does anyone know how to get in touch with Young Minds, and the others
mentioned in the article?

2. I am a heavy user of Ziff Davis' Computer Library.  Does anyone know
offhand whether this will be usable from the SunOS environment with this
setup, or will I have to use DOSWindows to access it like I am today.

Email replies to me, I'll post a summary if warranted.
