Mine arrived today, and installed successfully on a PII-233 with 64meg and
WIN NT4.0 SP3. I have successfully searched on each of the five disks
without any problems (and without finding anything new yet, but it's early
days!).

When I first opened the pack, my heart sank when I saw that the viewer CD
was quite heavily scratched. My first thought was "it's a good job
Carlingford is just up the road", but when I ran the setup program, all was
well. My guess is that there is less than 20meg of data on this CD, and
fortunately the scratch avoided that part of it. However, it does suggest
that the handling of these CDs during packing might not be perfect.
