	CD-ROM Glitches for "The Algorithm Design Manual"
	-------------------------------------------------

Macintosh:

	Old versions of MacOS (7.1) get confused with CD-ROM file name
	suffixes (;1).  However, everything works fine on MacOS 7.5.3,
	and presumably earlier and later OS versions.

Windows NT:

	The Macromedia sound plugin included on the CD-ROM doesn't work
	on certain versions of NT.  However, the latest plugin available
	from http://www.macromedia.com works fine.

	A problem came up accesing "\WEBSITE\FEEDBACK\COMMENTS\COM2.HTML"
	which probably should renamed because it seems to be
	interpreted by MS-Operating systems Dos 6.22; Win 95; Win 98, Win Me
	Windows NT4; Windows 2000 as a serial port.
	For example COM_2.HTML may be a valid filename.

General:

	The links to figures always jump to the bottom of figures instead
	of the top.  Remember to scroll up.  Sorry...
