Traveller on CD-ROM -- Was: JTAS 24, page 41...

I'm sure that other's have noticed that the CD-ROM are great but that the early pressing had
all kinds of issues. The fact that my copy of JTAS is missing pages and other,
issues. Discovering that later pressings have these problem solved has me mulling over
re-purchasing a few CD-ROMs. I've said many times here that I'm running a campaign via Slack
with my old group since I've retired and made this my hobby, I find myself referencing the
CD-ROMs alot.
To the point CD-ROM issues I'd want to fix:
* 271 - _The Golden Age, Classic Traveller on CD-ROM_
ISBN-13: 978-1-55-878271-0
My pressing has a lot of noise in the pages. These show up as black dots or sometime
nearly legible handwritten notes in the margins. This limits my ability to cut and paste
sections from the text. Most of the time I'm trying to transcribe a table into code so I
can enhance my referee's aid programs.
* 272 - _MegaTraveller, The Canon od CD-ROM_
No ISBN
Same as above and also much errata
* 270 - _The Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society..._
ISBN-13: 978-1-55-878270-9
As above and missing pages.
------------------------------------------------------------
**Q:** _Are there later pressings where these issues were addressed?_
I'm assuming this answer is yes because someone answered my earlier question on JTAS 24 /
missing pages saying their PDF didn't have the issues.
**Q:** _Are there later pressings of CT and MegaTraveller that include of partially include
the errata which was published later?_
Thank!
