[ramakrishna] CD on the works of Swami Vivekananda

February 19, 2001

Hello all,

Regarding the CD, I received mine over the weekend. I was a bit put off by the CD. The chapters were contained in a small frame/window which could not be resized. I think the emphasis was more on security of the matter, rather than user usability. Also, some things like not being able to turn off the audio, not having a min/max button, no regular scroll windows etc...

But, before you are beginning to reconsider, let me make it clear that this is one of the most brilliant CD i have had in a long time. No more tugging one or two books of Swamiji to the office daily to devote my long hour of lunch to the uplifting words. It has become a breeze. The photo section is excellent with very apt, short messages of the context of each photo. The quiz was somewhat not very confortable to use.

Also, the CD came bundled with the necessary 'Quick Time' software necessary to run the program. So overall, I would give it an 8 /10. Hope that future versions of the CD would be more easier to work with.

Sorry if my long email bored you all,
