You've had a good run, but Microsoft is finally discontinuing the encarta franchise later this year: http://education.zdnet.com/?p=2328
My aging bones remember sitting in front of the computer perusing encarta to short-cut on my research paper about the Titanic. Now I can go to wikipedia and copy and paste a lot more information. Did you know that the Titanic housed both a Turkish bath and a squash court?
Goodbye Encarta, you have served us well.

WHAT?! It's like when you find an old VHS tape for a movie you haven't wanted to see in forever. Completely irrelevant to my life, but I can't help but be annoyed that now I don't even have the option of using it.
A turkish bath eh?
