1 out of 5 stars agree - my computer won't even step down to 256 colors   December 29, 2003
Computer guy (Framingham, MA United States)
This product shouldn't be on the market any more.


1 out of 5 stars Total Junk - Not worth 5 cents!   July 28, 2003
Robert Koeppel (Clovis, CA USA)
I don't know how to begin describing what a total waste of time and money this product is. First, the games require that you set your display to 256 colors. This is 1989 technology and it shows. The dictionary has at most maybe 100 words in it and it's just a plain ASCII text list that pops up, not even a real dictionary. The pronunciation guide is a dirt simple text paragraph about long and short vowel sounds, it has nothing to do with how to pronounce any single word.

This program is total trash. I'd be embarrassed to give it away. Either the producers at Simon & Schuster never even looked at this product or they don't care how they get your money. I'm astonished that any responsible manager would let something this awful onto the market bearing the company name. I'll sure never buy anything released by Simon & Schuster after this.
