Rating - 1 Date: 2008-10-01
Content: I was disappointed in this product. I'd tried a free download of an earlier version and liked it...but this version seemed to have a bug that I couldn't avoid. At a certain point, it advanced me from one level to another far ahead, omitting many lessons that I needed. I tried many ways around this, but it always behaved the same way.
Summary: Buggy!
Rating - 4 Date: 2008-09-28
Content: This software loaded perfectly and works flawlessly for my kids (middle school-age). They follow the lessons easily. The practice games are a little young for them, but they don't object to them. The games do reinforce the lessons and provide a bit of a fun break.
Fifteen minutes, three times/week seems to be a good routine; and they are progressing.
Summary: Good for teaching kids to type/keyboard.
Rating - 4 Date: 2008-09-26
Content: Excellent software for my children under 12 years old. Quickly becoming adaptable to the keyboard
Summary: continues to be the best
