The game where you went from room to room answering questions, it was a maze-like game right?

I knew a guy who printed out an article from the Grolier encyclopedia and turned it in as a report, complete with copyright notices. He got an F.

What grade was this dumbas* in?
 
heh, i remember having encarta on cd's....there were a ton of them, and yet, they were never as good as britannica in paper!
 
I'm another Encarta 95 owner. I was amazed that they had video of Joe Carter hitting a home run to end the '93 World Series on it. Looking at that file on disc, it turned out to be an uncompressed AVI file that ran for all of 10 seconds. How times have changed. 🙂
 
i remember it was revolutionary when i could watch moving video from encarta, like video of teh space shuttle launch.
