Yes and no.  I saw article similar to that and also read somethings about that
but does not have a chance to get a hand on those.
  [Hint, hint, donation for the system are welcome. 8^) ]

Here at UNT, in my department that is, we used Laser Disc to develop a Tutorial
System and/or Training Systems.  We also create our own Laser Disc stuff.  The
current project is our own Centennian Celebration 1990.  Yeahhhh.

Info Window is IBM's product.  Well, what can you say...  It is good, and easy
to use.  It does not require you to have the touch screen (which is very
expensive) but has one will help eliminate the extra monitor for display Laser
Disc output and you can also have fun poking the screen.  It also talk! 
Editing and linking routine/program is easy to use...

Can't help you much.  MOst of the time I just config/testing/install those
babies.  Creating just a small stuff to make sure that it is up and running. 
I think there are also a couple newsgroup about Laser Disc.  Can't remember
something like comp.ivideo or even comp.infosystem.  They might be able to help
you more.

Sorry, can't help you on that.  We need some more input from others.
