We are looking for a comprehensive electronic atlas for use in an
undergraduate teaching setting.  This would be used primarily by our
International Studies students; the professor would like them to be able
to print maps at varying scales.   The department has about $400 to allot
to this.  They originally intended to spend the money  on rolled maps for
classroom use; so this is the sort of information they are after.
 
I am familiar with the Times Map that came out on disk a few years ago
and would be interested in any opinions on this product as well as
alternative suggestions.
 
I'm not sure how MAPS-L is handling this sort of request right now.  If
the usual practice is to respond to the poster directly, I will be happy
to summarize for the list.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
