Review & Description

Video, sound, and images almost pop off the screen as you browse the thousands of well-written entries, and the program responds to complex requests with relative ease. Although Encarta aims its interface, including a trivia game and cartoon-decorated instruction manuals, squarely at younger users, adults will find the disc helpful and entertaining - the collection of more than 170 synthesized national anthems alone is worth the price.
