Microsoft Encarta 2006 and a look back
The tagline on Encarta 2006 says "the complete companion to research and the internet". It is interesting to compare that to the 1994 version's tagline "the complete multimedia encyclopedia". Here is a table showing the content and media changes between the 1994, 2005, and 2006 versions.
