Heather,

The Codex Leicester is fully digitized and one of many impressive features
of the Leonardo da Vinci CD-ROM from Corbis.  It is fully viewable using
the Codascope, a looking glass of sorts that actually reverses,
right-sides, and translates from the Italian of Leonardo's script.  It is
also thematically viewable by subject, such as astronomy, anatomy, physics,
etc.

The CD is reviewed by Leslie Walker in the Fall issue of the VRA Bulletin,
currently at the mailer--look for it soon.
