This disc contains 2,500 different software programs. If you are thinking about simply listing the names of these programs on your printer, make sure you have plenty of paper -- the listing alone goes on for over 40 pages. There is something for just about anyone who uses an IBM or compatible personal computer and is interested in exploring available shareware and freeware programs.Software in a wide range of application and utility areas is packaged on this disc, including: line and text editing, data communications, personal and business finance, hard disk utilities, graphics, device drivers, educational programs, word processors, macros, spreadsheet templates, databases, accounting and bookkeeping, source code, games (we lost count of the number of spacewar-type games), and miscellaneous programming utilities.Instead of investing hundreds of dollars in a mainstream software package, it often makes more sense to see what software is available in the public domain. No more long-term logons to bulletin boards, no more collections of floppy disk software, no more hard disks cluttered with miscellaneous programs. The low price of this disc means that you can try out these programs for less than a nickel each!

Do you ever run out of disk space? Have you ever lost a backup version of a file? Are your PC applications constrained by inadequate storage capacity? Are you risking the information in your database by infrequent backups? Then a WORM (Write Once Read Many) drive is the answer.
CD-ROM, which is based on media that is pre-recorded, is not appropriate for applications in which writable storage is required. These WORM disk drives provide users with 800 megabytes of storage capacity on removable optical media. They provide data integrity, backup and archiving capabilities that are unmatched by conventional magnetic storage systems.
Each WORM drive kit comes with everything you need to interface with any IBM PC, Mac or compatible. They include a full height WORM drive in an external enclosure (with power supply), device driver software to make the drive 100% compatible with standard PC or Mac applications, a SCSI interface card, blank disk cartridge, and SCSI cable.
The drive's specifications include: average access times of 108 ms; average latency of 60 ms, data transfer rates of 1 MB/s; and an imbedded SCSI interface.
For the computer novice, it takes under 10 minutes to connect this drive to your system. Just plug in the interface card (for IBM PC models) or plug the cable into the SCSI port (for Macintosh models), add the driver software to your system, connect the drive, and you're up and running with 800 megabytes of storage capacity.
