Summary: Nice set
Comment: Great set at a great price. A must-have for anyone who's glued to NG magazines or TV channel. The interface is a little sluggish but I'm fine with that. Worth it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great idea with terrible execution
Comment: I got this as a gift and took a while to get to installing it. Unfortunately the software is slow, clunky, insists on playing loud music every time you start it. I'd love to use it but the interface is as terrible as it is slow. There is a tiny bit of goodness in that the software allows you to load all the DVD's onto a local drive. I can't say that it works as the whole thing is to broken to bother with the time to make it work.
Oh and it would be nice if they said somewhere on the box what the dates covered are. 1888-2008 as it turns out. Since the box doesn't even contain a copyright year for the content it's hard to tell that from the box. "Every Issue since 1888 makes it seem like they might have issues from 2009 or even early 2010 on there... but not so.

Summary: Waste
Comment: This was a complete waste of money. I am angry. Thankfully I still have the magazine collection.

Summary: Not What I Expected....
Comment: I am a photographer and I love National Geographic. I was so excited for this product to come out and have over 100 years of National Geographic at my fingertips, but using it has been disappointment. It is a little bit of a hassle to have to change out the DVD every time I want to view a magazine in a different collection. The use of it is pretty self explanatory, but it lacks the ability to be used the way I want to use it. It is really just a glorified PDF of all their magazines. I was hoping it would be more like a Kindle or other book reader where you could make notes, highlight right on it or flip pages better.

Summary: NatGeo DVD Collection
Comment: Fantastic DVD collection; easy to use. I have enjoyed going back to the very first National Geographic articles I enjoyed reading as a child in the early Sixties. Highly recommended!
