	"A while back PC magazine did a review on CD-ROMs.  They had a
	sidebar about the Tandy one.  The one they were talking about
	impressed them.  Basically it was about average in read time
	..."

But absolutely abysmal in mean access time, rated at *900*

for the masses who don't need multimedia performance.
