Summary: Needs a little work on installation, yet
Comment: ASL Deluxe 8-CD edition is a considerable improvement over the older, 5-CD edition. That edition only worked with old, now-unsupported versions of Java, but the current one works with Java 1.6.
On Windows, you'll need to install the latest Quicktime and the lastest Java Virtual Machine before you install ASL Deluxe, and you'll also need to fix program shortcuts if you intend on having limited users, or more than one user, run it. The shortcut installation is pretty sloppy for an application made since Windows XP's release.
Fortunately, that's all you need to fix. ASL Deluxe otherwise runs correctly, and the live signers performing the signs are a great replacement for the 3D animated signers in the previous release.
You'll find complete installation instructions here:

Summary: poor
Comment: The product did not operate as stated on the box. The supplier CDROMUSA wasn't at all helpful and left me with a product I'm unable to use; so they got FREE money and refused to send a replacement.
They don't deserve a star at all, but the one star represents the nice, deceptive packaging.

Summary: Great Concept, Trouble Accessing
Comment: Don't know why, but my computer (with Windows XP) has trouble accessing the disks. Have not been able to get the dictionary to work at all, but have been able to access the information on the other disks, after constantly retrying. Once there, the information is invaluable and I love the quizzes. Really helps to sharpen skills. Just wish I could access the dictionary!

Summary: American Sign Language
Comment: Well, it was not really what I was expecting and I am having some problems to visualize some topics on disc 2. I tryed to reinstall but it does not work out. But after all I still think that it will be helpful to me to improve my knowledge about ASL.
