Big Let Down [Posted on 2004-09-25]
Lots of math content but the slow interface and choppy voice reminds you of an early 90's program. Turn the speaker down or leave it up and pretend you are on your old 386 pc. I think I will stick with text books.

Good and Bad [Posted on 2005-01-02]
The good - so far I have been using this software a short time and I really like the practice section.
The bad: Hey, I have a high powered PC - what is the deal with the choppy voice audio?
And where were the QA testers? The little certificate after the subtraction practice has subtraction spelled wrong... subtarction. It prints it wrong on the screen and the printed output. Come on guys that is an easy one. :) Makes me wonder what else I will run in to that was missed.

Not what I expected at all [Posted on 2005-04-03]
I was initially excited to obtain this collection of Math cd's after reading the positive reviews. Intended to brush up on my math aptitude and be used by a younger home school family member. I started with the Algebra I CD and to my dissatisfaction, the complete format of the program, designed to teach/explain the problems, confused me and I am a college graduate. The audio voice that would go through the problems would talk to fast and no pause button is available to stop at certain points of the speedy and quick lecture. (Not a big deal, but it bugged me)
This was not at all what I expected and desired. I was hoping for a study guide that would go step by step and explain WHY and WHAT was being done. I actually have an OLD Algebra I CD from about 10 years ago that is much better than this 2005 edition. My advice to anyone considering buying this item as a study guide would be to look elsewhere and quite possibly stick with books. Sure this CD set provides math problems and solutions, but the explanation and understanding is totally inadequate.
