Physics Dept, W.Lafayette, IN Lines: 23 June 4th, 1991. Hey you Amigoids, you will like this bit. I finally heard some promotion for CDTV. Of all places it was on a radio piece from National Public Radio's Morning Show (Morning Edition?) The reporter was covering the Consumer Electronics show in Chicago. They had a techno-weenie C= representative who extolled the virtues of CDTV. He spoke fo the 50 or so disks that are available: games, Educational, Other. He had a nice sound bite from the Grollier's Encyclopedia, Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech. He even said that there is an Amiga Computer inside the CDTV. The best part of the piece was this C= person's explanation about the Grollier's Encyclopedia. "How many normal people do you know that pull a volume of an Encyclopedia off the shelf to read it? With CDTV, you can experience it." And you Amigoids say NeXTophites never have anything good to say about C=. 8-) 8-) 8-) REMEMBER TIAN AN MEN!!!
