Price: $179.95 USDescription:
The Complete National Geographic is exactly what the title says; 108 years of The National Geographic Magazine put together on CD-ROM. The set contains 30 CD's which come in sets of decades. Each CD has it's own comprehensive search index, making it easy to search each group of years. Each year has a separate content menu of 12 issues represented by the cover of the respective magazine, which if clicked on will take you to that issue. You can browse page by page, or search for a particular topic. If you find a page you want to bookmark, there is an option for that, also.
Features:
- Entire library of The National Geographic
- Historical events reported with the perspective of that time
- Excellent reference tool
Technical Aspects:
Installation was a snap, any of the CD's will do! The graphics were great, and everything ran well on my P100, 32 Ram.
Reactions:
This is great! The three CD's that were reviewed were the 40's, 60's, and the 90's. Each one has a significant event, the 40's with WWII, the 60's have the space race, and the 90's have Desert Storm. It would have been even better if I could have gotten my hands on one from the turn of the century. This is a must have for any history buff!
