Reviews
"It is a simple work around to reorganize your book files as you would like then open the file system and click on the file name after setting Kindle as the default app."
"This works great on my Windows PC, which enhances the functionality of my existing hardware."
"I use it with Bluetooth speakers in my car, to listen to text to read or audible, I use it in waiting rooms, sitting on the beach, while in hospital & sitting at home."
"I am grateful for Kindle given it takes 7 weeks minimum to get my hard copy books from U.S. to Rwanda since I am an online student here at a US university while serving at a post in Rwanda. Students beware, however, that some information is missing with the auto-quote references that appear instantly when you copy quotes from the Kindle edition."
"Although I love the ability to use the collections, it's just a bit tedious to use."
"I like the updated features like the different colors for highlighting importance sections in the chapters."
"I personally don't like looking at a small screen, like a phone screen, trying to determine what I want to purchase."
"With hundreds of millions of PC users, you'd think Amazon would care enough to create - BARE MINIMUM - a competent app. I just know in the future to buy my content (movies, music, video games, books) from a company that actually cares about me."

"Printmaster - Platinum Version 18 [OLD VERSION]Printmaster 2012 Platinum."
"As an aside, I have found that anything that works on Windows 7 will work on Windows 8."
"Have used Print Master software for many years and truly love it !"
"Thanks to those customers who stated that it works on Windows 8.1, even tho the system requirements only state Windows 7."
"It seems they could have made it easier and clearer, but I finally stumbled through the process, and the program appears to be working perfectly now."
"There was no help from the manufacturer.New Broderbund Printmaster 18.1 Create Amazing Print & Scrapbook Projects Fabulous Font Effects."
"I had this software before and it worked great, I loan it to someone and didn't get it back, when I saw it on amazon I knew I had found my favorite printing software, WRONG."
"I don't know if it is the product because, I could never get it to work with Win 8.1. Microsoft in my opinion has gone back to "If it works OK with my products I don't care about about other vendors"."

Reviews
"Great Project Options; Weak on Customizing."
"Love, love LOVE Print Artist!"
"I wanted to find something to replace my Print Shop 23 program that doesn't work with my new computer but was very disappointed in the lack of features in comparison with my Print Shop program."
"I have used Print Artist for many years and it is still a easy, great program."
"Using the disk, the home screen has a 'bonus font' button all it does it bring up a bunch of file folders and you click on each folder there are families of fonts in the folder. You have to click on the font to open another window to see what the font looks like, then you can download it if you want."
"At first, it was OK but I would not have given it more than a 3 star rating because the card selection isn't all the easy to filter and I was disappointed that there were no cards that included main characters that kids like - you know the kind, those they relate to in cartoons and such. When I call the number for the company, the automated answering system does have an option for technical assistance but all I have ever gotten is a voice mail that says the company's hours are Monday - Friday 6 AM to 6 PM PST."
"An email version cuts off after about 4 seconds so the message is lost."

"I was going to do the cash rebate, too many steps so I decided the online gift card, same long process."
"This package consists of 4 dvds and some addon software, including an image browser utillity."
"Works great for my graphics designs."
"love the many choices."
"Pros: As the title says "800,000" images is correct, it does contain more images then you can view."
"(not $5 like the paphlet inside says) for the book (which doesn't even show the fonts [one big reason I got it]). Bottom line: you need vectors and are willing to do a little "searching", this is for you, plenty of pictures. Fonts, ya there are a ton of them, but good luck looking for the one you want, it takes days. AND everything is pretty out dated (couple decades or so) Chevy Geo, and Mercury Capri?!"

Reviews
"I now only use the service across devices, laptops with Windows and Chromebook, to tablets, and both my personal Samsung s8 on Sprint and work iPhone 7 on AT&T. At home, I only use my TCL Roku TV which includes a BOD app. Using BOD, I have completed many 4-month p90x3 sessions, one Insanity, a bunch of the Goga Studio workouts, altbough p90x3 YogaX is my go-to favorite, and I am now two weeks into my 4th straight month of doing Corps de Force, mixed with at least one p90x3 The Challenge so I do not lose my ability to do pullups. I have also tried a bunch of the daily challenge workouts, which lead me to try Insanity and Corps de Force. In every case, I print out and follow the daily calendars that Beachbody publishes. To be fair to Beachbody, this is the first program she has continued to use for two years now, albeit inconsistent."
"The workouts are only a minute or two long each, so there is a ton of variety every day."
"Large assortment of workout programs and can download all the associated material (workout tracker, meals, etc."
"Having used Beachbody on Demand recently, I have to say its perfect to get me to go out of my comfort zone and try new types of workouts which obviously work as I have been completely sore, even after the shorter videos."
"BOD has the BEST and most effective in-home fitness programs. The combination of the fitness programs + the nutrition plans + the support of a Coach... that's where the magic happens."
"I have lost and kept off 30 plus pounds with Beachbody on Demand (BBOD)."
"Beachbody on Demand is perfect for working professionals like myself, or anyone who happens to have a busy schedule and can't find time to get a good workout in."

Reviews
"I had downloaded the trial version from the Calico Pie website and was very pleased with its operation. Even the trial version took in my whole combined family tree."
"The "eye appeal" of these reports is a big selling point for some of the companies even though all such reports should contain the same basic information. Family Historian does not provide the option to customize the appearance of the interface colors available in other companies. There are numerous sites where actual documents, other than the census, can be viewed and often downloaded."
"The Family Historian 6 Genealogy and Family Tree software arrived in perfect condition and on time."
"I've built a 12,000+ person database in The Master Genealogist, and the information transferred to FH6 with only a few tweaks."
"I chose this program because I wanted a program that would be able to make a website (that I can control, rather than Ancestry) and most importantly: LINK MULTIPLE FACES IN A PHOTO. I can make a box around the face in the photo, and it links that crop to the person. I can link multiple people in the photo. It's flexible enough to link lots of nuances and does not lag, regardless to size."
"The GEDCOM files imported easily, it's intuitive, screens contain plenty of information but are not cluttered."
"This seems like a great genealogy program."
"never could get the registration key code to go in, tried about 6 different ways."

Reviews
"The program was not hard to figure out; I was able to download it and monogram within 30 minutes."
"I have been wanting the Monogram Wizard Plus for a long time."
"I have entered into this problem, because I now have 2 computers tied up with different Monogram Wizard programs. Upon further inquiries, transference from XP to Windows 7 was accomplished. The Point of contact was unable to transfer the "code" so that the software can be activated for Windows 8. Because the point of contact that transferred to Windows 7 did not provide the new "code" to my wife. I'm sure this will be resolved now that emails are involved (Unless I am instructed to converse by phone). He went into my computer, found the problem (which was on the FAQ's at the website, downloaded a fix, and, lo and behold!!!"
"did not make as large as I wanted or I may need to learn more ."
"Despite Windows recognizing the external drive and recognizing the CD itself, and loading the program properly, the software would not run from the external drive, generating a repeated error message that the disk was not in the drive. Bottom line: Monogram Wizard, by my testing, will not run on external CD drives (a **serious** issue, given the cost of the program, if your computer lacks an internal CD/DVD drive, as many newer ones do), and the company's useless tech support doesn't care--at all--about problems with their software."
"I agree with the other low star users that this is outdated software and it is a real pain to have to take your cd to whatever computer you need to use it on."
"Sorry to say but I am a little disappointed with this software."
