I just got the "Apple Desktop Media" videotape in the mail.  It's a pretty 
slick promotional tape.  It's more or less an extension of that Helo-Car
commercial we've all seen day and night.

Question:  What is Apple Desktop Media anyway?  Is it just a promotional
term like "The Macintosh Office" was in 1985?  Or is it actually a product?
Just goes to show you that the tape isn't all that clear if I still don't
know what it is that they're selling.

Someone once mentioned an Apple Desktop Media CD-ROM.  Is there such a thing,
and if so, what's on it?
