When a multimedia presentation is done properly, each component reenforces the others. You can see, hear and read about the subject matter. However the drawback of multimedia is that it consumes a huge amount of Internet bandwidth and can take an unacceptably long time to download using a regular modem. This is why most web pages only have limited forms of Multimedia. Multimedia has found a home on CD-ROMs because these disks can store huge volumes of data, and the computer can read the data off the disks far faster than it could download it over a telephone line. <!-- Warning, this file is automatically generated, modifications to this file will be lost next time Candid Candice reboots. --> <HR> This page was created and is maintained by <a href="http://www.moo.ca/wizzen">The Wizzen</a>, © 2002. <P ALIGN="center"><CENTER><A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/candice/toolbar"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="http://files.moo.ca/pics/tool.gif" WIDTH="494" HEIGHT="19" ISMAP USEMAP="#toolbar" ALT="English toolbar"></A><BR> [ <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/">home</A> | <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/help?%23555">help</A> | <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/who">who</A> | <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/search">search</A> | <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/candid/setup">setup</A> | <A HREF="http://www.moo.ca/candid.:!">code</A> ]</CENTER> <MAP NAME="toolbar"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/" COORDS="0,0,80,18" ALT="Home"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/help?%23555" COORDS="81,0,161,18" ALT="Help"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/who" COORDS="166,0,246,18" ALT="Who"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/search" COORDS="247,0,327,18" ALT="Search"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/candid/setup" COORDS="332,0,412,18" ALT="Setup"> <AREA SHAPE="rect" HREF="http://www.moo.ca/candid.:!"
