4 stars (A GOOD FACE-LIFT FOR ANY VERSION OF WINDOWS XP) - Silence everybody!!! Who says that software don't need plastic surgery? Well, think again! Microsoft has had a long history of tailoring cosmetic-surgery-kits for most of her software. It does not matter whether they called it 'Service Packs', 'Security Updates', 'Plus!' or whatever. The deal is always the same; and for the same purpose: improvement!
And with this "Microsoft Plus! SuperPack for Windows XP", the trend continues. It doesn't matter if you are running the Home Edition or the Professional Edition of Windows XP; this 'Plus! SuperPack' will certainly inject a new life into the operating system. But for die-hard professionals, whose PCs are strictly used for conventional office work, this XP-addition is really unnecessary. However, the same cannot be said of those who are into digital media. They will love it.
SuperPack is surely the ultimate companion of Windows XP, if you are an ardent lover of things like MP3, digital photography, digital arts, digital audio, 3-D Gamining, 3-D Graphics, animation, and general multimedia. It virtually conjures every digital fantasy, which you have ever nursed. And the exuberance will not end there!
This software also comes with a long list of assorted screen savers, which are not originally found in any version of Windows XP. But note that the fact that your computer meets the system requirements of Windows XP does not mean that it will meet those of this SuperPack. This additional XP companion needs at least 1GHz of raw processing power and 512MB of RAM to deliver plausible performance. Gambling on any PC with lesser statistics may bring you disappointment. "Microsoft Plus! SuperPack for Windows XP" is clearly an additional entertainment kit, so the more memory and the more processing power that your computer throws at it, the happier and more diligent it becomes. This logic also holds true, if your computer's graphics card has a better-than-average 3-D accelerator, and provides at least 64MB of memory for the expected graphical merriments.
In a nutshell, this Windows XP companion is worth considering if you are looking for a mind-blowing entertainment-extra, which will amplify your leisure experiences without costing you a fortune.
5 stars (Great software for putting old records and tapes on your computer!) - This software works great, was easy to install and makes recording my old albums and tapes onto my computer a breeze. This is exactly what I was looking for and would recommend it to anyone interested.
5 stars (Education Student) - I came so close in returning this purchase; however, with a few days of trying to understand how to install this program (it is not intuitive at all!!) it really works well. The space screensaver is worth the price of the package itself; it is really spectacular with scenes of the space station against the Earth. Also, the Acquarium screensaver is also astonishing! I have not even looked at the other add-ons that are available. I think this program really requires a very fast machine and definitely the latest and greatest video card. |
