1.0 out of 5 stars Great.... if you don't have Windows XP, February 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Birds of the World (CD-ROM)

My sister bought this for me, the 3 CDROM pack with Birds of Australia, Birds of the World, and another bird CD when I had Windows ME and it worked like a charm. But, when I upgraded to a much better computer and WAY better operating system in XP, I installed my beloved birds CDROM and lo and behold, it didn't work. So, I wrote to Webster's, very politely, and they wrote me back and told me that no, it will not work on XP, BUT, they are in the process of repackaging Webster's Birds of the World software and get this... those who bought the earlier version has to buy it again! Now, that has been over a year since I bought my new computer with XP on it and still the new software is yet to be seen. So, if you like birds like me but you have Windows XP, don't waste your money buying this CDROM. I think it totally bites that Webster's didn't come out with an XP patch like every other software company but instead is trying to make an extra buck (probably they'll make us buy the new package for like 30 bucks) reselling the software, which I thought was fine as it is. Come on Webster's, stop playing Bill Gates and just come out with an XP patch!
