Abstract

Abstract A ROM region provided by recording fixed information such as a book into a disk with pits by stamping and a RAM region formed by coating the disk with a magnetic film constitute a partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium. Additional information such as an underline and a note with respect to the fixed information is stored in the RAM region. A computer body reads the fixed information from the partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium by the operation of an operating portion, displays the information on a display unit, creates underline information and/or note information and a note mark, and displays such information on the display unit and, if necessary, stores it into the RAM region of the partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 45 words
A partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium comprising: a ROM region exclusively for reading into which fixed information is recorded by stamping; and a rewritable RAM region for storing at least additional information such as an underline and a note with respect to said fixed information.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 32 words
A partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium according to Claim 1, wherein said fixed information is a book such as a dictionary, a manual, a reference book and a dictionary of technical terms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
A partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium according to Claim 1, wherein said additional information is modifying information such as an underline and has data which indicates the position of said fixed information at which said fixed information is modified.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 49 words
A partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium according to Claim 1, wherein said additional information is note information such as a note for the word or the phrase in said fixed information to which a note mark is added and has data which indicates the position of the note mark.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 128 words
A computer system comprising: a partial ROM magneto-optical disk apparatus using as a storage medium a partial ROM magneto-optical disk medium provided with ROM region for storing fixed information and a readable/rewritable RAM region for storing additional information such as an underline and a note with respect to said fixed information; a display unit for displaying said fixed information and said additional information such as an underline and a note ; an operating portion which is operated so as to create said additional information such as an underline and a note and to display said additional information; and a control unit for creating said additional information such as an underline and a note and displaying said additional information on the basis of the operation of said operating portion.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 92 words
A computer system according to Claim 5, wherein said fixed information is a book such as a dictionary, a manual, a reference book and a dictionary of technical terms, said oparating portion is operated to input position data of underline in the book, position data of note mark for specifying a word or phrase in the book and a note to the word or phrase specified by said note mark, and said control unit displays, together with said fixed information, the underline, the note mark and the note on the display unit.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 57 words
A computer system according to Claim 6, wherein the control unit controls for storing said position data of said underline and said position data of said note mark for each page of said book in said RAM region and further storing the correspondence between said position of said note mark and said note in said RAM region.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 98 words
A computer system comprising: an optical disk apparatus using a disk for optically storing fixed information as a storage medium; a rewritable storage unit for storing additional information such as an underline and a note with respect to said fixed information; an operating portion which is operated so as to create and display said additional information such as an underline and a note; and a control unit for creating said additional information such as an underline and a note on the basis of the operation of said operating portion and displaying said additional information on said display unit.
