Weighing in at only one pound and with overall dimensions of 14 x 13 x 2cm, the MicroCD 24X from Microtech International is the ultimate portable CD-ROM.

It fits easily into a briefcase or notebook sack and is an economic solution for people on the move who need access to multimedia or CD-ROM information in or out of the office. The MicroCD can be connected to your notebook or desktop computer by means of a Type II PCMCIA slot or USB port.

Either connection allows for quick data transfer rates without draining the computer's battery. Utilizing an internal power management system, the MicroCD draws what little power it needs from a combination of the PC Card (or USB cable) and it's own internal rechargeable batteries. Depending on your computer, the MicroCD can sustain several hours of normal usage.

The MicroCD supports DOS, Windows 3.1x, Windows 95, Windows 98 and Mac OS 8.1 or higher (for USB).
