EBSCO Subscription Service publishes a CD-ROM handbook quarterly which has
both Mac & PC CD-ROMS. Not quite a definative listin, but it does have 200
pages of good info though.  EBSCO can be reached at 800/368-3290 for the
MidAtlantic Area.  I can post more regional 800 #'s for EBSCO if people
want them. Other wise their main number is 508/887-6667.
