I'm reviewing the International Monetary Fund's _International
Financial Statistics_ CD-ROM and would be interested in hearing from
those of who have bought it or considered buying it.

I am particularly interested in two issues:

1) Cost: Is the cost of this CD prohibitive? Have academic departments
or individuals obtained their own copies?

2) Utility:  Do you prefer the CD format over the tape format?

I would be interested in hearing any experiences or comments you have
as well.

Please reply directly to me and I will be glad to summarize for the
list.  Your replies will be kept confidential.  Thanks for you help.
