The box has a thin cardboard cover that’s extremely bright and cheery. Why the box? Mostly because I can, but also because it actually has a very nice box. So, in retro review fashion (like three months ago), I shall start with the box.

So this is basically my word of warning to those that either can’t patch or don’t trust the patches to have fixed the problems. Now, if you happen to be running one of the operating systems listed above and still want to try the program out, you might find that you don’t have as many problems as I did. The only reason I bring this up is that there were several problems that I had with this software that may have been fixed by a patch. To make matters worse, when I called the company to find out if there was an online source I could download the patch from, they told me that Rosetta Stone doesn’t work under Linux. When I attempted to download the patch, the program crashed. I’m running Rosetta Stone in a virtual environment that has it up and running, but I’m unable to patch my software. So, what has this done to my usage of the program? Actually, surprisingly little.

Rosetta Stone is only supported under Windows Vista / 2000 / XP, and Mac OS X, while I’m using Linux. Now before I get into what I like and dislike about this program, I would like to make a little note about my situation. The idea really is pretty decent, and I imagine a lot of people would benefit from this style of language learning. The idea is that you’ll associate everything you see with an image rather than tying it to a word you know.

This is a very fancy term that means they’re going to be using pictures to convey the meaning of the various sentences to you. So, what method does Rosetta Stone use to teach you the language? It uses what they call “Dynamic Immersion”. Right now, if you were to buy this set, you could get it for the bargain retail price of $539 (or just shy of most community college Japanese courses). Of course, that’s how they’re drawing you in. Just look at that, even the name sounds impressive. Once my uncle found out that I was actually going through the effort to learn the language, he surprised me and bought the “Rosetta Stone Japanese Level 1, 2 & 3 Set with Audio Companion”. See, I was actually rather happy with my Yan and the Japanese People. I’ll be honest – I didn’t spend a penny on it. Let’s face it, this is the big fish of language learning.
