A year ago I dusted off two copies of the CD not used in years--mine and my library's--and asked a tech wizard at my institution to get them working. After installing and downloading and transferring and troubleshooting, the tech person told me I have only two options: buy a Windows 95 or 98 computer off Ebay for $100 for the sole purpose of running this CD, or transfer the CD's text and image files (which are not encrypted) into a folder on my current computer and use the computer's native search engine and readers rather than the CD's software to access the files.<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>The first option isn't viable for me or my library/students.

Is anyone out there still using the CD without access to a very old Windows computer or a computer with yellow letters (I'm glad to know the ever-resourceful BL still has the CD running)? Has anyone tried using the CD's raw files with different applications (the second option suggested by my tech person)--does this really work?
