uh.... yes I'm not that young.
no clue what your referencing.
Its another way for him to move data.
Assuming you mean CD-ROMs... NO. IT. IS. NOT.
what does CD-ROM stand for? Compact Disc
Read-Only Memory. how does read-only memory help MOVE files?
Why else try an add it to something like that.
Not sure what your responding to.
No there not but records share the bases for the cd technology.
assuming your trying to say that records share the "base" for CD technology, they do not. they are not even close, except perhaps for the fact that they both are a disc shape (of course if one uses that as the basis for such logic we may as well say that hard discs are based on the same technology as frisbees).
a Compact Disc stores data using Pits and flats; the pits and flats can represent ANYTHING from music, to any form of data that can be stored in digital form.
a LP/Record, on the other hand, is used exclusively for music playback. the grooves in the disc are followed by the needle, which responds to the topography presented to each side of the needle by playing back the recording- this is analog, not digital.
According to: http://www.computerhope.com/help/cdrom.htm
Cd's were released in 1982 and started becoming popular in the late 80's and early 90's.
Windows 3.1 was released in 1992 so there has to be ways to get it to recognize CD's.
True, the Red Book Audio CD standard was published in 1982- but, I don't believe any CD-drives existed for PCs until after the creation of CD-ROM. Not sure about WORM drives in 1982 that adds a fuzz factor to the whole jig. I guess the yellow book was a Draft spec?
