(i) It is learned that the software applications provided for the course participants of 'Self Learning Computer Programme' (free of charge), 'Microsoft Office Made Easy' (pay course) and 'Introduction to Chinese Input Methods' (pay course) run by the Science Museum still remain at the stage of Windows 3.1, Word 6.0, PowerPoint 4.0, Excel 5.0 and Access 2.0.
