    I think that any ex-teacher who thinks he can make a fortune producing educational software should be made to work for Sherston first to see how it should be done. Easy to install, seldom if ever crashes, popular with the kids. Map Detective is brilliant, especially the London Underground.

    You are joking ?
    I had a few titles that did nothing but crash !!
    The numeracy and literacy titles spring to mind. OK if they are on one PC - not so good running them off a network. Even when I E-mailed their tech support with screen dumps of the error messages they were perplexed !!

    Never had that experience... There's over 10 titles ranging from Crystal Rainforest to the annoying one mentioned above and I've had no problems at all..

    Granted the ini files need tweaking to get things working properly but once you've learned the ins and outs once you're away.
