----------------------------Original message----------------------------
The 2/27/90 issue (v6n4) of PC Magazine reviews six systems for networking
CD-ROMS:  AGANET, LANtastatic, CD Server, Map Assist, HP OfficeShare, and
Opti-Net.  The article focusses on products which would meet the needs of
a company which wanted to provide access to CD-ROMs on a network.  Meridian
Data's product CD-Net was not reviewed because the updated version was not
ready by the review deadline.  The article does discuss hardware issues and
other information for newcomers to CD-ROM.  LANtastic and CD Server get the
editor's choices.
