Ellis also has a great support system, it's well worth its price. The beginning students really like the New Oxford Picture Dictionary. We have Steck Vaughn's GED and Pre GED Program. They will upgrade our GED Program this summer and the old one was very good, but the Pre GED Program is a big disappointment (looks like an old DOS Format and is really hard to read). Our main problem with ordering software has been that many catalogs offer software that they really haven't yet produced (but they won't tell you that) and we are still waiting for software that we ordered almost a year ago. We have a NT network and many programs don't yet have a network version. Good luck!
