Microsoft Encarta 2002 Reference DVD

[Darren]

PC World are selling this cheap at £25 so I bought a copy last night. It's very good, and at that price well worth the money. Loads of information with multimedia clips and interactiver graphics.

Anyone else got it? I noticed that the box says "UK & Ireland Edition" or something similar. Wasn't there something about Microsoft adapting Encarta slightly for different areas of the world?

There's also the Encyopedia Britannica on DVD, but I've only ever seen the huge multi-volume print edition gathering dust on library shelves!

I to bought a copy in PC World for the same price.

p.s. Should the "to" be "too"?

Just thought I'd ask.

Yes it should be too.

What do you think about Encarta?

I havnt got Encarta since about the 97 version, but its always been a good package - very useful and infromative - but with the internet these days i can find more things quicker than using an encyclopedia <shrugs>

That doesnt guarantee that the stuff is any good though
