What Apple Computer, Inc. has released are CD-ROMs, which are considered a standard medium for storing computer data. Because these are not musical CDs, and will not produce music when used in any CD player, they are not a musical product. They _are_ a computer product. Therefore, they definitely fall under the range of products that Apple Computer, Inc. can sell under their agreement with Apple Records. -------------------- Jeffrey Hutzelman America Online: JeffreyH11 Internet: jh4o+@andrew.cmu.edu BITNET: JHUTZ@DRYCAS >> Apple // Forever!!! <<
