| Customer Reviews:
 good combination of dvd, cd, and voice recognition October 12, 2008
I have a Windows Vista laptop with a built in microphone and both the software and the DVD ran without any problem. The voice recognition is great and will have you pronouncing the Mandarin tones correctly in no time. The lessons are good but too short. The only drawback to the software is that there isn't a clear place to start. You have to browse through the icons and figure it out for yourself. The audio instruction is well thought out and you will learn new words and phrases quickly. I would recommend this to Mandarin Language beginners. If you already know Mandarin tones and a modicum of words then this is not for you.

I wish I could give this product a good review, but it would have to run on my computer in order for me to do that. If you have Vista beware. The customer service folks tried to help, but they finally gave up. I asked a few questions that would allow me to do it manually, but they ignored those and pointed me in totally worthless directions.
They finally offered me a refund, but I haven't taken them up on it yet. I was able to run on my office PC running XP. I copied the disk to a thumb drive and then burned a DVD on my own computer. That ran, but did not install correctly, and I don't think their customer service people are that technically savvy to be able to help.
In the the areas that I could get to run, I noticed the people speaking were using Taiwanese versions of Mandarin, not Beijing as I was expeting.
