IF YOU NEED TO KNOW SOMETHING FAST August 17, 2005
M. Salahuddin (NY)
Many of us may own encyclopedias or world books, however, most of us so stuck with the computer seldom we have time or energy to open the encyclopedia to get to an entry and read through it. With this product (issued in 1999), you could actually look up a topic or issue or idea you want to know about and do it immediately without going through the pages of a big, heavy, reference book. I am not saying that you won't need an encyclopedia or that this IBM product is as good as we expect it to be, but sometimes we do need to know something quick and traditional Encyclopedias are of no help to serve that function. This product could have been better, for sure, but I found it useful when I do not have much time to ponder on something and, especially, when I need to look up other related entries in a very short time.
