Hi David, These cases are best viewed using our supported software GEMPAK. GEMPAK is freely available for download, but does not run on windows. However, it does run on Linux which is also freely available, and you could partition your disc to handle both OS's.. Wish they were more compatible with windows, but of yet, they are not. Thank you, -Jeff ____________________________ _____________________ Jeff Weber address@hidden Unidata Support PH:303-497-8676 COMET Case Study Library FX:303-497-8690 University Corp for Atmospheric Research 3300 Mitchell Ln http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/jweber Boulder,Co 80307-3000 ________________________________________ ______________________ On Mon, 18 Nov 2002, Unidata Support wrote: > > ------- Forwarded Message > > >To: <address@hidden> > >cc: <address@hidden> > >From: "David Cissell" <address@hidden> > >Subject: hello > >Organization: UCAR/Unidata > >Keywords: 200211181923.gAIJNrj02201 > > I have a question about Case #042, the Kansas & Missouri ice storm. > If I decide to order the CD, will the appropriate "viewing" software > be included?
