New Millenium Encyclopedia & Home Reference Library Deluxe 2002

Summary: Outdated and not recommended
Review: I had several problems with this product:
First, the link to update the CD ([URL) is defunct. There is no way to register the program or to update it past year 2000, much less "beyond year 2002" as the packaging suggests.
Second, you must have the CD in the drive in order to run the program. I do a lot of research and find this an annoyance.
Finally, the other books included with the program, such as the dictionary, can't be run separately from the main program.
Spend a little extra money to get a current version of a different program. I wonder why Amazon continues to recommend this product.

Summary: Great Information but...
Review: I received New Millenium Encylopedia October 16. The program itself is wonderful, however, after repeated tries I still have not been able to register the program and the Info Center link in the program hasn't worked. Other than those problems and that the Versabook features (the ability to get more books for the reference program) is only available with registration, the books and information are well worth the money.

Summary: Educational Fun
Review: This is a terrific interactive encyclopedia for both kids and adults. It is concise, educational and fun. Great pictures and factual entries make this a wonderful tool for school, or just plain learning for the fun of it. Easy to navigate with descriptive text - the whole family will love it!
