Are the CD's in true ISO-9660 format, which would enable them to be used in
more than just Wintel machines? All my machines are Sun workstations running
Unix, so unless the CD's are in real ISO-9660 format I won't be able to use
them.

The files should ideally be set up so they can be accessed independently of
any software supplied with the CD's, since that restricts their worth.

Craig.
