I learned to touch type on Mavis Beacon. Sadly the CD-ROM from Windows 95 is not compatible with Windows XP, so when I upgraded my computer I had to buy it again. Guess what-I've now got a laptop with windows Vista-and it's not compatible either!I will not buy it again! The program really works-I was up to 30wpm in a couple of weeks, and it's easy to do a quick refresher at the PC when you have a few minutes. Watch out though-if you are planning to change systems/computers, the CD will become useless!

Just to correct an earlier review you DON'T need to run this off the CD, it's got an install option and you can then bin the CD if you feel so inclined. It always pays to read instructions ...

I could already type before I got this, so I can't really comment on how good it is for people learning right from the beginning. I got Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 15 to help me brush up my skills and to improve my overall speed, and it has certainly done that. The program installed easily. Once installed it is really easy to fire it up and get going on your practice. I must say that using Mavis Beacon 15 is a whole lot more fun than the way I learned to type some (cough) years ago on an old manual ... Read More
