Look in this area for a ZIP file containing more info on the contents of the CDROM if you are interested. Rick The file wcreek.zip is a copy of most of the readme files in the top-level directory of the Walnut Creek Ada CDROM. This is also a copy of the index tree from that CDROM, showing you in detail the contents of the CDROM. Note: the omitted top-level readme files were omitted because they were more of an operational bent than an informational bent, and, as someone who wants to know what is on the CDROM, I restricted this blurb of information to a higher level of detail. This information is provided as a service to the PAL user community. Users should be able to determine if they wish to acquire the CDROM from this information. To some users, acquisition of this CDROM would also require the acquisition of a CDROM reader. It is hoped that this information will allow them to adequately judge the value of the CDROM to them before expending the funds for such a purchase. People who have made a contribution of a significant item on this CDROM are entitled to a free copy of the CDROM. I personally find this to be a very generous offer on the part of Walnut Creek, but, as a contributor to PAL who also wants to see efforts like Walnut Creek succeed, I chose to purchase their CDROM anyway. However, their offer stands, and it is up to you. The price of the Ada CDROM is $39.95. Quantity discounts are available starting in lots of 10 CDROMs. Contact Walnut Creek for details. As always, shipping, handling, and sales tax are extra when you consider the final price. For further information contact: Walnut Creek CDROM 4041 Pike Lane, Suite E Concord, CA 94520 800/786-9907 or 510/674-0783 FAX 510/674-0821 Email info@cdrom.com This information was last updated on 8 June 1993.
