Advantages of using
your CD-ROM
module
There are at least four good reasons to have
access to a CD-ROM drive module for your
computer.
• Many software packages are available only
on CD-ROM.
• Many others that are available on floppy
disks have additional files and reference
material that is only available on the
CD-ROM versions.
• Software manufacturers frequently charge
more, sometimes much more, for floppy
disk versions.
• Loading software packages from floppy
disks takes longer and is more
cumbersome.

carrier for the optional CD-ROM drive module

the directions for installing the software.
