I latched onto this fact in a big way back when I was 12 years old. There was no way the average kid was getting hold of an Encarta CD, but then something magical happened: it was bundled with a lot of new PCs. It's part of a devious scheme that made me who I am today. Encarta for me is more than an impressive archive of information. My son being taught how to research a subject (penguins, if you must know) thrust this iconic bit of the 90s back into my thoughts, no doubt like how a jewel thief might rekindle past heists when teaching their children how to make a plan. If you are a fortunate child of the mid-90s you'll have experience with Encarta, the interactive CD-based encyclopedia from Microsoft. I can't have been the only child that made a presentation for their parents in order to sell the value of a home PC in the mid-90s.
