- Here's some questions I'd like to have answered about the Photo CD...
-
- How many pictures can be put on a single CD?
-
- What does it cost to get x number of pictures "developed" and how
- long does it take to process it? Can you take them to your local
- drug store or do you have the mail the film in yourself?
-
- From the television commercials, they always show the Photos on the
- television set ... so, the pictures are stored with MUCH more
- resolution than that of a standard television set?
