Betsy,
	Why not make one yourself. I'm in the process of capturing the
departments
and my collection of slides then storing the images on CD. Examining these
slides again I have found some pretty fabulous fields and with the almost
limitless capacity of CD's now have a large collection of images. I can now
take a set of images, write appropriate text for the course then assemble
on a CD. The feedback from the students is very, very positive and a
subject that was always viewed as 'oh no, not ****** histology again' is
becoming attractive. Only downside, the students don't use a microscope,
but I can live with that if they now view histology as interesting.
	If your worried about cost don't be. All you need is a microscope with
video camera, Iomega Buz, Adobe photoshop and a CD burner.
