Fantastic resource! An extraordinary amount of information, very well indexed. Should be an essential part of the library of everyone who has an interest in Tasmanian colonial history. I have been amazed at the speed of the various searches I've conducted on these files - I'm running an i5 processor with 8gig of ram and every word or phrase I have entered using Adobe's advanced search tool returned multiple results in under a minute. Browsing is also excellent - so much material to provide context to whatever person or place you're researching. Highly recommended - easy to use, very powerful. Definitely worth the investment - no more hunting for CDs and waiting for them to load. Thank you!
