  I am going to be purchasing an IBM 386SX, and as incentives, IBM offers
the choice of 5 software packages.  I know NOTHING about IBM s/w (I
currently own & run an Amiga), so I was wondering if somebody could help
me make choices and tell me what each piece of software does. 

  Here is the list from which I have to choose:

EDUCATION:
Math Blaster
Speed Reader
Spellit Plus
Reading and Me
Kids' Works
Read & Roll
What's My Angle
Eco-sauraus
C.Y.P.H.E.R.

GAMES:
Hoyle Book of Games Vol. 1
Mixed Up Mother Goose
Mixed Up Faery Tales
Adventure of Willy Beamish
Space Quest IV
Stellar 7
Legend of Robin Hood
King Quest V
Microsoft Flight Simulator

PERSONAL/WORK AT HOME:
Quicken
Address Book
Calender Creator
Top Priority
Express Publisher
Company Ladder
Quick Schedule Plus
PC Tools Deluxe


  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Please send any info through
mail, if possible.  Thanks
