- To summarize the responses to my question about Alge-Blaster math
- education software...don't buy it.
-
- Other comments made:
- 1) Number Munchers has some small monsters on the screen that caused
- temporary fright in one 3rd grader. (They upset my youngster at first,
- too, especially the idea that her little guy could get eaten by them, but
- now she enjoys the game very much.)
-
- 2) MacConnection has a worse index in their catalog than MacWarehouse,
- but MacWarehouse makes you sign for deliveries while MacConnection
- doesn't.
