do any semiconductor makers have available on CD-ROM their databooks and
application notes?

seems to be an ideal way to avoid killing a few tonnes of trees per engineer.

people like me who cant really justify or squeeze out of sales people
sets of databooks wouldnt mind paying a 20-50$ for a CD-ROM.

my particular fascination this week is with MAXIM, EXAR and Motorola chips.

but i would be interested in hearing of any vendor/brand making CD-ROMs
available.

on a tangent to this: any of them using network/dialup/BBS accessability to
   their semiconductor data ?

    -ken, whose set of dead trees is from 1984ish for TI/Motorola/Intel/Signetics
