 Rating:  - Great ProductRosetta Stone is truly an excellent product. It has a unique way of learning a new language, unlike other programs, it makes learning fun.... Rating: - Excellent resourceI spent some time in Brazil last year with a missionary friend and plan to return regularly in the future, but determined to know some Portuguese next time I go.

To make a long story short you need to insert the cd application AGAIN REMOVE,ERASE FOR GOOD the first learning cd.Thereafter you insert the cd application again so you thankfully can load the 2nd ...

It constantly crashes, tells me there is "minor error" in which case you have to repeat whatever little section your are on. Very very poor programming. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
