SHAREWARE NOTICE
----------------
Although you may own this disc, you do not own the programs recorded
on it. Many of the programs on this disc are shareware, and they may
require separate payment to the author of the program for continued
use. You are free to try shareware programs for a limited amount of
time. If you are satisfied, and want to continue to use the program,
you are expected to register the program by sending a specified
amount of money directly to the author of the program. In many cases
the author will send you the most up to date version of the program
and a printed manual. Please check individual files for conditions
and restrictions.
Support Shareware! Pay for those programs that you find useful to you!

NOTES ON CD-ROM DRIVES
----------------------
Nothing is more frustrating than buying a new CD-ROM disc, plugging
it into your player, and having it NOT work! Unfortunately, many
of the older or least expensive drives on the market today have
problems reliably reading large CD-ROM discs. In the past, our
discs were all over 630 megabytes in length. Using newer
compression methods, we were able to reduce this by nearly 50
megabytes in storage requirements. The removal of some over one
megabyte sized files that were prone to CRC errors saved us
additional space without sacrificing the quality of our product.
We hope this resolves all the known compatibility problems with the
drives available on the market today. If you experience any
difficulty with any of our CD-ROMS, please call or FAX us at the
number below.
