This is a great product. We have a home based business and have enjoyed working with this program. The only downside is when you need to email some documents they can't always be read or opened if the recipient doesn't have the same updated program. This has only happen a few times.

I love this product, and the fact that it allows me to run windows on my mac is great. It does not slow my laptop down at all. I would recommended this to anyone that has a mac to go ahead and buy the program that way if a program only runs on windows you have the capacity to do so.

Having had 2 years of college Spanish, and having been in an immersion program in Ecuador for 10 weeks - the value of this software is tremendous. As a stand alone course with out any other Spanish training, I would find it mentally challenging to master. But to complement a high school or college class, it is very good.

My complaint is that running on my AMD64 computer, it is a little slow. Version 3 is a big improvement over V2, with less emphasis on the progressive tense. The future and past tense are introduced earlier, and is very helpful in the early language development.

I wish there was a little more of a pause at the end of some lessons for you to review the sentences, vocabulary, and spelling. Instead, the answer are flashed quickly, and the next question is ... Read More

I have been using Elements 2 for some time and find it to be an excellent tool yet I felt ready to upgrade and liked the new features that 6 offers. The reason I am not buying PE 7 is because 1. Based on reviews the only significant difference is heavy marketing of web albums (I am a flikr user so don't need) and option to change background color (I like the greys). I downloaded the free version first (which everyone should do as there are some complaints about system stability) and found no problems with crashing and so forth. There is a significant upgrade in quality compared to the earlier version, especially in the image enhancing tools which is what I principally use. The color curves option is fantastic and the ability to fine tune shadows and highlights is excellent. The quick selection ... Read More

Nice piece of software, but is limited. I have worked with several of the Adobe products and all do a nice job by allowing the user to make adjustments to photos. Personally, I thought this was a little pricey for the options that it gave. I was hoping that I could do all of my adjustments within the framework of this software, but instead find myself importing and exporting my photo from one piece of software to another. iPhoto even has several options that this doesn't. I feel that the Adobe products are over hyped and then in this case offer little. On the Windows side, Microsoft's Picture It even has some options that this doesn't. One basic that I think this is missing is the ability to stitch photos together for a panoramic effect. To do this I had to obtain Cannon's PhotoStitch. My suggestion ... Read More

I was very disappointed as I purchased this item hoping to have it with-in the time guaranteed. I didn't receive the item, I tried contacting the seller and I didn't receive any response. I did call Amazon and the customer care person was very courteous and put a claim in to guarantee my purchase. I am not happy with the seller but I was assured by Amazon's commitment.

THis is a good product and it works as advertised. However you are on your own if you need help. Support is non existent. I had a question and needed some help with the initial install. Two weeks later I received an email saying my help request had been assigned a support number and to use that number in all future correspondence for assistance.

I tried OneCare's trial version on a new computer we put into our small business network. I had intermittent problems loading and printing across the network through some of our older DOS programs (yes, we still use several old programs because they work great). The puzzling thing was that I could reboot the computer one time, or nine times before the DOS programs would load and print--it was that unpredictable. I disabled OneCare to see if it was causing the problem. The problems persisted, so I assumed it was caused by something else and bought OneCare through Amazon for all our computers. The same problems then occurred with those computers, so I uninstalled OneCare, which solved all our loading and printing problems. I also found that OneCare slows Netscape to a crawl (yeah, I know--it's a dinosaur, but ... Read More
