Difficult to useThis program is very difficult to follow. Much of the material resides on-line and the links do not always work. Even worse is that the Springhill company Tech Support website has bad links and can't accept any e-mail help requests. Do not waste your time or money on this program.
Presents incorrect historical informationI just received the software and am displeased with some of the contents, specifically the Video Learning system. As I watched the video on America, then and now, I saw so many historical inaccuracies that I would not recommend showing the video DVD at all. The Britannica DVD comes with a Free trial but other than that the info can be found free on the internet. I think that the only thing that it is good for is the testing software.
