We recently installed Wikipedia on DVD on our network and also made a copy available on loan in our school library. It is available on the student desktops with an start menu icon next to the other
'encyclopedias' Even though this is only a 0.5 version test release, I am impressed by how popular it has become with
our students.<br>
<br>
The DVD is low on eye-candy and unnecessary graphics or movies so fast
to use, great for students that have run out of Internet credit, free
for them to take a copy home.<br>
