Our library is considering purchasing a good technical CD-ROM.  I have
heard that the McGraw-Hill publication isn't so great.  Apparently the
librarian is also having trouble getting it to preview, which is perhaps
reasonable with software, but makes no sense to me if it's a CD-ROM.
        Could anyone recommend either a supplier with a liberal preview
policy and/or another good tech CD-ROM?
        Incidentally, Ludvik, sorry for the misspelling (I posted that
after stuffing the turkey at 4 AM!).  I STILL think your work is good, no
matter how I spell your name! <<Joe>>
