I installed the Rosetta Stone software on my Vista based laptop with no problems. It uses the same core software for all of the languages. After installing the core software, I then installed the lanugage software for all three lessons in Japansese, as well as 3 in another language. The software comes with it’s own headset and microphone combination. It worked correctly with no installation problems. Before each lesson begins the software asks you to repeat a phrase to correctly set the microphone level.

Learning a language takes time. The Rosetta Stone software is abosultely the fastest way to learn compared to courses. That said, it is difficult to learn the language without real opportunities for conversation and learning the subtleties by engaging in the language first person. I’ve used the software and it has been very helpful, but completing it is a very time consuming task. If you have never used Rosetta Stone you will be surprised at how much fun it can be because their system uses engaging photographs that help you remember and learn the meaning of both vocabulary as well as the verbal structure of the language assembling increasingly complex variations (the English equivalents of adjectives, adverbs, etc.

I have last year’s version and previous years as well. I attempted install on a W7 computer and the install failed. Tried it on another (different model) and the install failed there as well. Checked nonlinear with Microsoft and there are no listed install problems with Windows 7 in general.

Although I’ve used previous versions of this product, I obtained and evaluated this latest version. Running on a dual-core Pentium computer I found it to be relatively fast interactive. Post scheduling processing was slow when transcoding (changing from one format to another). I used the software to make YouTube video and home videos. I edited a variety of formats including incorporating still images. I never had problems with software stability. I did think the screen layout made it difficult to work at once with both the highlevel timeline of an entire video, and also see the details of individual effects, etc.

I purchased Sketch Book Pro specifically for doing initial (draft) sketches of network diagrams, flow-charts, and other telecom engineering work. In the past I’ve found most drawing programs to either be lacking in features or far too complex to learn and use for simple sketches. What I needed was a program that could allow me to do a mix of vector object placement and drawing as well as free-hand sketching (with a Wacom tablet).
