This Compact Catalogue interface
is a pure JAVA applet which should run on any computer platform with a
Java 2.1 enabled web browser application. See below for
supported
browsers
To be realistic this
requires (for PC's) a Pentium 133MHz+ / 32Mb RAM minimum.
Clearly a fast modem
(33.6k+) is best for displaying the visual information the catalogue
contains when viewing on-line. |
