5.0 out of 5 stars This Program is Exceptional For Learning ASL, October 19, 2008

I too was a little aprehensive when I saw the date on the product, but for a lousy $20 - I thought I'd check it out.

First: It runs on everything PC. I have it installed on 3 machines that run 1)Windows XP Pro 2)Windows Vista 32 bit and 3) Windows Vista 64 bit. It runs great on all of them.

I am a college student enrolled for 3 consecutive courses in ASL, and after using SigningAvatar v.2 for several weeks, I am really pleased with how much it is helping me. I can make the person avatar be closer or further from me (smaller or larger),turn him (or Her - there's about 10 to choose from) all the way from left to right. This enables me to see the hands from any angle. I can also speed up or slow down the avatar's signing to whatever pace meets my level of proficiency.

With a word-search textbox, I can ask it to finger spell the word, make the sign for a word, and put the sign into a sentence. Of course there is an alphabet roster on the bottom of the screen so anytime I need to, I can see the person avatar sign any letter of the alphabet. I highly recommend SigningAvatar to anyone who is serious about learning American Sign Language.

Make sign language easy, fun, and shows how people use sign language everyday and it is part of every day life; especially the common sign language.

Good buy.
