CDROMs: at the heart of multimedia

Abstract

CDROMs are not just an important tool for archiving reference materials. Now, personal computers equipped with CDROM drives can be used to display and play back audio recordings (on conventional CDs), drawings and photographic materials as well. Multimedia has become the latest catchword for personal computer vendors and the CDROM drive is at the heart of current audio‐photo‐computer applications. Connect a CDROM drive to your computer, plug in a sound board, attach loudspeakers and you have become a vanguard personal computer user.
