COMMENTS FROM USERS

This is a superb CD, not least because it is so user-friendly and FAST on my old 233 mhz PC that it is a real pleasure to use. I wish others could put together their data so intelligently. Thanks!

I purchased "The Photo-Atlas of Minerals" CD and you folks did an awesome job with it! I especially love the variety of images in the photo galleries! The pronunciation of the mineral names is perfect for someone like me that's just starting out, stumbling over these names.

I have just received the 1.1 version. One or two things I noticed in the last edition have now been fixed, but I’ve only just started to browse it. It seems fine. Many thanks! Happy Christmas.

Very satisfactory. May I suggest a companion volume on just California minerals with more localities?
          Kevin Walker, Santa Cruz, California

Thank you for your prompt shipment. The CD was shipped on 12/15/98 and arrived in Sydney on 12/21/98. I should have some time over the Christmas vacation to enjoy it. At a quick glance the quality of the photos appears to be excellent and it is nice to see quite a few from this area of the world. Regards and best wishes for the Festive season.

I am very impressed with the CD… We are having a great time looking through the specimens and are trying to plan our touring holiday to Italy via a route where we can do some mineral collecting on route using the maps as an aide memoir.

Preliminary viewing, WOW, GRRReat!!!! Should be hours of pure enjoyment and the joy of learning new names and where these minerals come from. This should take all the guess work out and make it fun. Thank you for something that I will always enjoy in my retirement.
          Richard Smithen, Coalinga, California

I am really happy with the CD and I am really glad that I purchased it. It is worth every cent & more. The pictures are fantastic. I am sure that I will get much use. I am an amateur mineral collector and I wanted to classify my own collection.

I am extremely impressed by the CD. I have many rock and mineral identification books and this is by far better than any of them.
