This new CD Rom is packed full of useful information for devotees of these choice cacti.
It contains well over 2,934 images, mostly of plants in habitat showing the full range of variations. Some of these were included on an earlier version of this CD rom but this one contains very much more, for example it has:
The disk comes with only the minimum of documentation and a shareware picture viewer to examine the files. This makes it a bit difficult finding your way around the disk unless your computer already has an array of tools for viewing, indexing and cataloging files. In particular the inclusion of the articles and books as scanned images rather than text files means that most users will not be able to search the text for references. I know that production of hyperlinked text ideal for computer viewing would have been a major task and would have probably put the cost of the disk outside the reach of most cactus growers, so it is probably the best that could have been acheived at the moment.

Therefore the above directories contain further subdirectories whoes names should reflect the corresponding field number. The extensions of the names indicate the photographers of the pictures. Photographers: Bill Beaston (BB) Dixie Dringman (DD) Horst Kuenzler (HK) Adolf Muehl (AM) Lamar Orton (LNO) Ralph Peters (RP), Here are few examples: Directory fh37.fh pictures of population fh 37, photos by Fritz Hochstaetter fh38_1.fh pictures of population fh 38.1, photos by Fritz Hochstaetter fh63_1_7.fh pictures of population fh 63.1.7, photos by Fritz Hochstaetter fh69_118.fh pictures of population fh 69.1.1.8, photos by Fritz Hochstaetter fh28_2.am pictures of population fh 28.2, photos by Adolf Muehl am597.am pictures of population AM 597, photos by Adolf Muehl h91b0705.am pictures of population GH 91B0705, photos by Adolf Muehl SB504.rp pictures of population SB 504, photos by Ralph Peters The name of a picture itself also reflects the field number of the population. Example: Pictures in the directory fh63_1_7.fh are fh6317_1.jpg fh6317_2.jpg fh6317_3.jpg, where the number after the _ is just a picture number.
