Re: how many schools have CDROM

[Carol Muska <cmuska@TENET.EDU>]

Sean,
Our elementary school has cd rom drives, in fact we have 6 one on a TANDY
386 and the others with MACs.  Our student population is about 490.  I
know that we are better equipment than several of our High schools.  It
is just where the principal puts the priorities.  All 6 of our high
schools do have a cd rom on a tandy 386 that they use Comptons
encyclopedia on that is it for many of them.
