i bought a $150 rosette stone software for chinese and thought it was absolutely useless

Too easy? Too hard? Just didn't think it was teaching you anything at all? More detail would be appreciated - I have also looked at this stuff for languages. Do you think an audio series would have been more useful?

the set up was bad. it seemed very limited in how it worked, in fact now that i think about it i must not have known how to use the program becuase all i got was a picture and 4 different words and i had to multiple choice over and over and over again to learn and that's all it had. yup i must hvae missed something. i was pretty pissed at the $150 software

I used the Rosetta Stone Intro to Italian a few years ago and thought it was a very good introdcution to really learning the language (which would take the regular program), not so good if you're going to be a tourist.

I'm planning on getting my daughter the Japanese set as it should be a very good adjunct to her school classes.
