Advantages: Fantastic, really easy to use and improve

Disadvantages: Semi-basic

My Grandmother got this software for free with her first computer, a few years ago.
I used it almost every time I was at her house, it was choreless.
Not only was I learning how to type efficently which has benefitted me endlessly at school, college and work, it also was quite fun to do, with timed tests, exams to see how fast you can type certain words and even practice on typing letters that don't normally go together in words, in order to full exercise your fingers and really get you used to flexible typing.
I'd say if you have children around 7 or 8, this is the perfect starting age for this kind of software as it is very simple, easy to pick up and use and will vastly help their typing skills as most work in schools, colleges etc is based on computers these days.
Fantastic software for all ages.
Adults can use it too as it isn't too dumbed down either.

Summary: Good all round software for all ages!
