Kathy,

The CLV design is mostly used for movies, since it holds about 2 hours of
stuff, while the CAV is used for interactive requiring stills - it holds about
30 minutes.  Rumors have abounded for about 5 months that there is a version of
CLV being tested that includes a _frame grabber_ - a memory unit that will hold
individual frames for use as stills.  This would give us access to up to 2
hours of video, with the added advantage of stills ( I believe this is called
*Heaven* for interactive designers :-)

Actually, there is no reason why CLV units could not be equipped with built-in
frame grabbers capable of storing from 1 to 4 frames at a reasonable price.
Memory requirements would be affordable at about $60.00 per meg.  Egad! my
videodisc unit would have more memory than my computer.  (Oh well, I bet my
toaster will have more memory than my computer when I install the home security
system in it.)
