I used Version 8 on Windows 95 to teach myself to type in the late 90s.
Then I thought it was great. It was a big help.
This version I expected to be more polished. Perhaps more scientific in it's approach; though really it hasn't changed much. Still good.
Purchased for my neice, installation hung on her XP machine during install/registration. Ctrl+Alt+Delete showed registration and installation to behave as two seperate applications. Killed registration and the installation proceeded.
The first thing I noticed was that the interface didn't scale well to a widescreen resolution of 1680 x 1050 some jumbled text in the options dialogue.

I used to use this, and was very pleased with it under XP, but I upgraded my computer, which included 64bit Vista. This programme will not run, and manufacturers i) agreed & ii) had no plan to remedy the problem. I bought a different make of product in the end. (Either that or stop my research).

I bought this DVD as my partner had a previous version last year, and he passed the test. So I bought this one again but with a latest version.
But I am not really happy with it, the picture is not clear at all, for example, I cannot see the car's breaking lights or indictor, so of course I cannot respond as quickly as I can. It was really depressing for me, and I thought it was my own problem....
We bought this game when our daughter was 3 and she still enjoys it now she's 7 along with her younger brother, they have spent many a quiet hour having fun and developing their computer skills. It's very easy to follow and is great for young beginners as the games range from easy to more difficult or you can complete the whole challenge if you can! We run this on an Apple Mac and have never had any trouble with it. A great buy for a child just starting to play computer games.

My kids (aged 5 and 8) have loved this software. The 8 year old has spent hours making the cartoon stories, whereas the 5 year old has had great fun with the painting and collage sections. I have also enjoyed exploring it with them. I have had no problems at all with the printing. Well worth the money!

We bought this for our 5 year old daughter who absolutely loves it. There is a lot to do, easy to follow instructions, fun learning, great games and much more. In fact she is now 6 and still plays and we are about to buy her the Year 2 CD. Highly recommended

Building a website is something that has been one of life's mysteries to me. I started my journey when you had to really know what you are doing with HTML and it made me run for the hills. This software has given me the confidence to give it a go - and I haven't looked back. So user-friendly that even I can do it, particularly with the online help facility. Great for home or small business use.

It's always sound commercial sense to shoot yourself in the foot by alientaing your core customers. I'm a self confessed early adopter, so I knew this would be a challenge but after many months I've given up and moved to Open Office!
