Britannica 2003 Ultimate Reference Suite DVD

With Britannica, it's all about content. All 32 volumes of the famous encyclopedia—75,000 weighty articles—are packed onto a single DVD, along with a dictionary and an atlas, as well as age-appropriate Student and Elementary editions. Sadly, the bare-bones interface, though serviceable, isn't much more than a search bar. A Research Organizer and Web updates help, but Britannica won't challenge Encarta for ease of use any time soon. Still, the content makes this a welcome addition to any library.
