After Deathly Hallows, I was HP-drunk, and when I saw this, there was no way I wouldn't buy it.
Overall, it was alright. For a first attempt, it wasn't bad, but there are definately improvements that could be made.
First of all, control is limited. While you control left and right, and have some control over your speed, you don't really control the third dimension. (Up and down)
Also, once you get the hang of it, gameplay is very easy. Too easy. We're talking I squished my opponent ten out of ten times. It's actually funner playing head to head against a friend, though scoring is sparse in those games.
If I could go back, would I buy it again? Sure. There are good aspects to the game, and if ... Read More:

I am a music teacher, and I have been using this software with my students since it was first introduced many years ago. It works especially well in the classroom if you have an LCD projector. I have used it from Kindergarten right up to 6th grade, as well as 7th/8th grade special ed. I am purchasing a new copy now because I wore out the old one! Very highly recommended!
I was hesitant to try this software based on some of the reviews but I went ahead and got it along with the Punch University subscription (on-line videos). I have just finished the 6th lesson and I can now create a multilevel building with rooms and custom roof. I find the product pretty straight forward once you get used to how they do things. I guess there is a learning curve if you've never used home design software before, and I think they could clean up some of their UI to make it more friendly, but overall I like it. I'm looking forward to the rest of the classes and then re-modeling my house. One thing I do question about this is the 'feasibility' of my designs, knowing nothing about mechanical/structural engineering I suppose a real architect ... Read More:

Got this program to replace my 3-D Home Architect 3.0 which I loved. (I did't love 5.0, which I also had.) It's okay. Does what it's supposed to, but isn't easy to figure out things like stairways, etc. Not sure any of the others are better, but I might try them. (I got this because it got a Bronze Award and was the least expensive. Oh well. As I said, it isn't terrible, but it isn't great.)
I'm an adult learner, determined that *this* time I'm going to get past the "right hand or left hand, but not both at the same time" stage. This has been a great program for doing that. You can take it at your own pace, and repeat exercises over and over again, going back to them to refresh. You can do the exercises in either "Wait for the Note" or "Notes and Timing" modes (there's also a mode called "Rhythm" that I haven't figured out yet). "Wait for the Note" helps you learn finger placement and note location; then you move on to "Notes and Timing" when you play what you've learned to the beat of the dreaded metronome. The program gives you a score each time you play a piece and lets you know what bars you need to work on. There are also a few games to relieve ... Read More:

This was given to me as a gift in order to help me write short stories. There was really nothing to this software except some hack's cliched views on what story development should be. This is not only a waste of money (in my case it was a gift) -this is a waste of time for anyone trying to figure it out.

I love making my own cards & personalizing them. I was disappointed when my American Greeting card program quit working and found they no longer made it. So, I gave this a try and it is just as good, if not better.
