A week or so ago I made a statement regarding the usefulness of the current NeXT CD-ROM for most NeXT users. My feelings were that there simply weren't enough CD's out there to justify more than a 1 to 10 ratio of CD's to users. It was since pointed out to me that NeXT and several others are producing some rather interesting CD's at very reasonable prices. Given that, and the very attractive bundle pricing, I must take back much of what I said. I'd like to thank a NeXT Canada engineer for pointing these out to me. All of that being said, I still think it's a close call. The very big CD advances have yet to come. What may very well kickstart the CD industry is Photo CD's and the NeXT CD-ROM reader is not Photo CD compatible. There! Philip McDunnough philip@utstat.toronto.edu [NeXT Mail appreciated.]
