Reviews the Complete National Geographic, the Leonardo database and FDR (Rossevelt) from Corbis, Grolier's Picasso, Dorling Kindersley's The Ultimate Human Body, Microsoft's Virtual Globe, Rand McNally's New Millennium World Atlas, the 4 encyclopedias: Compton, Grolier, Encarta and World Book, the combined reference tool Bookshelf'98 and the game, Riven by Broderbund
