Professor Teaches Office 2010 and Windows 7 Review

Professor Teaches Office 2010 and Windows 7
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I approached this product eager to learn all sorts of new tricks for working with Office 2010. I haven't had any training in Office since I first learned it years ago, and I thought this would be a great way to make sure I was taking advantage of its range of services. However, I found my enthusiasm waning rapidly just trying to set up and load this program. There is a rather involved registration process (why?) which took at least 15 minutes. Then the program itself is rather clunky-- it doesn't load onto the computer per se-- it just stays in a relatively little box on your screen (if there was a full screen option, I missed it). You have to click on each lesson separately and then it takes you slowly through each step. I found myself clicking rapidly through the screens to just past all the basic info. Bottom line: you need to be prepared to devote hours to this training. I'm sure it's thorough, based on what I saw, but quite frankly, I lacked the patience for it. I found it easier to get a book and simply work through that-- much easier to skip what I didn't need and go directly to what is helpful. So if you have time and want an exhaustive review of Office 10 this will get the job done. I just needed something more intuitive and efficient.
Pros: good price, extensive and comprehensive information
Cons: too clunky to register and set up, too much time for each training unit, not easy to navigate to get to what you need

Moodle Essential Training For Teachers Review

Chris provides a great walk thru for anyone wanted to build a course in Moodle... plus it's much easier that a book to learn and see how to use the software.
It was great to have the teachers and students training on one DVD.

Moodle is an online tool that allows educators to interact with students outside the classroom and manage a course from anywhere. In Moodle Essential Training for Teachers, Chris Mattia shows how this program works for teachers on three levels: disseminating information, creating a forum where ideas are exchanged, and assessing the progress of students. Chris shows how to build course materials with Moodle's HTML editor, post assignments, and save time by using Moodle's grade book to evaluate tests automatically and organize scores. Exercise files accompany the course.Macintosh Requirements OS 10.3.9 or higher DVD-ROM drive 1024x768 resolution 24-bit video support Quicktime 7 or higherWindows Requirements XP, Vista, Windows 7 DVD-ROM drive 1024x768 resolution 24-bit video support PC sound card/speakers Quicktime 7 or higher (included) .NET 2.0 or higher (included)

PowerDirector 8 Deluxe Review

PowerDirector 8 Deluxe

I have edited a lot of photos, but had not tried to edit/burn videos before. I spent the last several days learning to do so, and, of the 4 programs I have tried, this is by far the best in my opinion. I have been converting from VHS to DVD, Hi8 to DVD, and Hi8 Digital to DVD, and now HD Mini-disc (the technology has changed at least 4 times in the last 20yrs. Hopefully DVD is around awhile, but if not, at least the quality does not degrade over time like tapes do).
I downloaded free trials for 4 programs. The cheaper "beginner" ones I won't even comment on. They were terrible. Then I tried Corel Video Studio X2 Pro. It worked but was very slow to compute, move screen to screen, and burn the disk. Burning to DVD took almost twice as long as the Powerdirector 8 Deluxe. But the worst part was it was not intuitive at all. You had what seemed to be two separate modules: The Wizards, and the Hard-Core Editing module. Heaven help you if you had to switch from one to the other. Totally confusing and non-intuitive. For instance, if you accidently added music by not UN-checking a box, and you saved your project, you couldn't go back. I'm sure there is a way to do it in the hard-core editing part, but I couldn't figure it out. The user guide was also pretty worthless.
Power Director 8, on the other hand, was very intuitive (at least as intuitive as video editing gets; there is still a steep learning curve for the first video or two). The manual was excellent, but I didn't even need to refer to it much. The program steps you from capture to burning the disk one step at a time, and you can skip around all you like without losing your work (unlike ny experience with Corel). It has some very nice templates for menus that are almost automatic, and make the finished product look great. The program is a great mix of "beginner" features, and professional editing capability. I was so impressed by it in comparison to other programs that I tried (I only tried 4), that I felt I should review it on here.
The best thing to do is to download these program's free trial and try them yourself. They are full-featured, and last for 30 days. Corel and Cyberlink both have this available. Then buy the one you like.
ALSO, make sure you have at LEAST 3GB of RAM, and a 100MB of hard drive, and 2GHz Dual Core CPU. That's what I had on my laptop, and it was marginal. I was running XP also. This program is Vista or Windows 7 compatible as well.

ProEngineer WildFire 2.0 Student Edition Review

This person is trying to trick you... the software is obtained when you have an account on PTC University (actually this account is obtained when you work in a big company like Sony, Samsung, etc..)
So when you start your WEB training PTC allows you to use they "Pro/Engineer Student Version" Software, this software is free of charge (when you have the PTC University Account).
If think that this person will send you a package like showed in the photo "is just a trick" he/she will send you only a USB Memory with a copy of the software.
Please don't get tricked, Pro/Engineer doesn't cost $100 Dlls...

Professional Training for Vegas Pro 8 Software Review

I have purchased this product thinking that it was a comprehensive training for Vegas 8 (Due to the title saying "Professional Training For Vegas 8") this turned out to be only involving the "NEW" features of Vegas 8 (Like Multicam Tool, Pro Titler Tool, etc.) and nothing else. It's good and comprehensive for that matter, but not good for people like me who is looking for training in general. So this one is going back with regards to Sony Team.
PS:I have submitted an update request to the misleading description on the Amazon site. Hope it will appear quickly.
