Summary: Warning! Don't buy this deceptive bundle
Review: This is the poorest of deceptive bundling that I've seen to date. The title "Elementary Advantage 2005" would lead us parents into believing that this is a collection of latest & greatest educational software. When in fact this is a collection of old relic software as far back as Windows 3. One of the disk insisted that I must have Windows 95 installed {I have Windows XP, yet the box deceptively tells you that it's compatible with Windows XP}. The installer from one disk told me that it can only support 256 colors {What year was that limitation present?} Of the software that I did get to run in between all of the errors, it was obvious this set is very antiquated software and is pathetic at best. This set is a terrible collection of old ... old programs that can't install or run on today's new computers. Don't be fooled by its new "2005" presentation this software belongs in a museum not in a new wrapped package. Shame on Encore for pulling such a disgusting stunt with an issue so important to us parents as our children's education.
