 In reference to CDTV titles have touched and played with:

 Classic Board Games 		- Merit SW
 World Atlas         		- Xiphas
 New Heritage Dict   		- Websters(???) Lots of pictures as well.
 A Farm Based Childrens Game 	- ????


  As far as quality the Atlas was the best. The NHD booted into a 1.3
CLI, so CDTV *IS* a 500 with a CD ROM drive after all. 

  I also got to play with HyperMedia's FF Disk and the CD-ROM
Filesytem. The FF is NICE to have all on line and the CDROM-FS worked
very well (You have to have a 2091 or a Hardframe though, it DOES NOT
work on a GVP Series II - Yet.) The only problem is that the icons
WILL not (or ARE NOT) line(d) up and since it is a CDROM -- You cant
Snapshot them! Everything else was GREAT!
