Compton's Encyclopedia VIS edition ?! Message-ID: <1994Apr3.213603.20677@seas.smu.edu> Sender: news@seas.smu.edu (USENET News System) Nntp-Posting-Host: rapid_f.seas.smu.edu Organization: SMU - School of Engineering & Applied Science - Dallas Date: Sun, 3 Apr 1994 21:36:03 GMT Lines: 12 Hi there, I just got ahold of the following CD: "Compton's Multimedia Encyclo- pedia - VIS Edition". It also mentions 1992 Edition Version 1.10VIS. It has a bunch of .AVI and .WAVs, but no setup/install file at all ! Anyone out there knows anything about it ? Thanks a lot for any help. Mario (mario@seas.smu.edu) PS.: I paid $15 for it and I was said it would run under Windows and wasn't as great as Encarta, but it'd be neat. Was I taken for a ride ?
