(Because they saw that the AMIGA was so cool, and they wanted on the Bandwagon) (In my opinion) The Definition eems to be a "program" that incorporates all forms of information. (Text,Graphs,pictures,sounds,ect..) and allows a "person" to get to the information easially. A good example is i the "Malls" that have the Booths with touch screens Touch the section/store ya want and see/hear ad's and specials. I've seen stores (grocery) that have "Recipe" booths that show ya foods and give out "recipes". Kinda Neat. --------- Seems to me Multimedia is "writing computer programs for Idiots" ie. If it's not understandable WITHOUT thought it's too complex!. C-ya. -- yorkw@ecn.purdue.edu Willis F York ---------------------------------------------- Macintosh... Proof that a Person can use a Computer all day and still not know ANYTHING about computers.
