	Well, there are really only two ways around this as Win95 Release
1 took out Green-Book (CD-i) support.  They had it back in Win 3.1.  The
only way to get this is with Win95 OEM Service Release 2.  And OSR2 is
only available when you buy a new machine but Central Computer Systems
does sell it on a CD-ROM for $89.00.  Now, if you do see someone at COMDEX
from Microsoft, don't forget to shoot those rubberbands at them for taking
out CD-i support in Win95 Release 1 :-)
