 REQUIRED COMPUTER SYSTEM

Base is a desktop system. Though the system is personal computer based, it
has been designed to provide the user with many capabilities such as high
s p e e d full-text search and retrieval. Once your IBM personal computer or
close compatible has been fitted with a CD-ROM player, it will have full and
unlimited access to CCB. The installation process is not difficult. Quar-
t e r l y update discs will contain the entire CCB library.
