I would like to know what it would take to add some circuitry to
an audio CD player so that a computer could read a CD rom on it.

Any references on understanding the guts of an audio CD player would
certainly help.  Perhaps the computer reading circuitry would need
to connect to the laser transducer directly?  Of course, any
schematics would help also.  Please enlighten me with your ideas on
this subject . . . I am open to suggestions on how to proceed.
