I was gifted one of the Turn the Page CD's from some friends who recently returned from England.  Perhaps for one of the classes at an upcoming AHSS, I can show it off for those that want to check it out.

  Good stuff!

Just an FYI, they also offer many of those books in the British 
Library's "Turn the Pages" series on CD-ROM. I recently purchased the 
Sherborne Missal Turn the Pages. It has the same 32 pages shown online, 
but has some additional background information and articles, as well as 
the ability to examine those pages at a higher magnification than 
available online. I'll also add that there are some pages viewable here 
that are not seen in either of the Janet Backhouse books on the 
Sherborne Missal.

It was worth the money (to me), and I'll gladly show it to anyone who'd 
like to see it (though the experience will be better if we have a 
computer handy at the time =P ).

Pax,
