Advantages: fast when running correctly

Worked for 2 year with no fault. By the way it is made in Germany. 2) INSTALLATION: Good CD manual with a step-by-step installation guide In 12 languages. Very easy to install. We did it twice on both computers (laptop and desk comp - no probs) 3) PORTABILITY: as ... Read review
