Lines: 13 Nntp-Posting-Host: mikey.convex.com I am thinking about getting a cd-rom based encylopedia system for the kids on my old XT. Does anyone know of a system that works at a reaonable speed, but is not real expensive? I would also rather not take up one of my floppy disk controller lines either, it needs to have its on controller or run off of a hard disk controller. I do have VGA so I don't think graphics is a problem. Thanks alot. -- tgm ================================================================================ Tom Murphy tmurphy@convex.com CONVEX Technical Assistance Center
