I finally had a chance to try these yesterday, and they are VERY
impressive.
It is the next best thing to running ACEDB itself.

For Mac users, the just-released NCSA Mosaic B1 (beta) is a very nice way
to access them on a color Macintosh. To get NCSA Mosaic for the Mac, you
can just

ftp ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu
cd Mac/Mosaic
get NCSAMosaicMac.B1.sit.hqx

If you use Fetch (also from NCSA), it will automatically unbinhex the
result.
Then you can double click the result to decompress into working files.
