This program ought to be called Everything You Wanted To Know About The Olympic Games but were Too Lazy to Find out!

This is a complete database of the results of the Olympics from 1896 to the present, classified by years, medals, events, sports, sexes and countries. The program calls up the results, together with winning times, etc, in response to your combination of input factors. It will even draw a bar chart of certain comparisons. It is extremely fast and well laid out.

A second cassette in this very professional package allows you to input the results on this year's games in detail, then compare them with those of the previous two Olympics.

The two cassettes are accompanied by a high quality instruction manual, which also gives a potted history of the Games.

If you're a facts and figures orientated sporting computer buff, then buy this with confidence, although it's expensive. But don't expect to read the manual in five minutes and rush into using it. You need to practise to get the best from this "program with a purpose".
