Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not too bad....certainly not perfect
I'm just now getting around to using this program and I'm finding that its organization is a little unusual. However, I think with time the familiarity with the program will better facilitate navigation. One other bad note that the program has is that within the "grammar" component of the program, example Spanish sentences are not translated for you.

Rating:  - Check the discs
Check your discs before starting. I was going through the 11 discs that came in the box to discover that I had two of the audio disc 6 and none of the software disc 2!
