Caveats: The interface is every now and then clunky. Additionally, one of the crucial language on the packaging and in the Set Up Protect dialog containers is gibberish as a result of Glaskar skimped on its German-to-English translations. Rest certain, however, that after put in, the articles in the product itself are well written and clear, with highschool seniors or college newcomers as the target market. Overall, that is a enjoyable and educational merchandise–nice for finding out, reference, or indoor Big Name observing on a cloudy evening. –Erik Macki
