Review Changing Rooms / BBC Multimedia:Changing Rooms is one of the most popular programmes on TV and its home makeover team have become celebrities in their own right. Here designers Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and Linda Barker are joined by show presenter Carol Smillie and handy man Andy Kane to help you give your own home a new look. The software can be used on three levels. Newcomers to the idea of design can look at a selection of different styles for furniture and accessories that have been pre-packaged to give a particular look. A more advanced option is to get Linda and Laurence to show you groups of items they have put together for inspiration. They explain how these items help inspire a design, and then show the design itself. For the really experienced there is a freestyle approach to room design, which you can use to choose colour, objects, fabrics and so on to create your own room. You can work on a bedroom, living room, or dining room. The other side of this CD-ROM is a database of practical projects showing you how to make a range of furniture and decorations. The advice and information from the designers is useful, and the chance to play with colour and themes on a CD rather than using real money and your own room is welcome. [+]Changing Rooms could be very useful if a room make-over is on the cards in your house. -Sandra Vogel.

Review Learn Polish Now! 9.0 / Transparent Language Learn Polish Now:TRANSP LANG LRN JAPAN NOW! 10. UK Learn Polish Now! 9. 0 comes with two CDs, one of which has various key sections-useful "survival phrases", fun activities, conversations and practising speech against the voice of a native speaker. The other CD has a thorough grammar tutorial. This combination is certainly a valuable one for people who are serious about learning a language, and the product is clear and easy to use: in role-plays, phrases are highlighted in a box and their English translations placed underneath, while the voice recognition software allows you to measure your own voice against that of a native speaker and the games hone the things that have been learned. Sections are tailored to various activities, such as getting around, going out and business situations, while at any point you can call up a grammar tutorial that will explain a topic in more detail. The section on survival phrases will be of much use to those who have already reached a basic level. There are several practice dialogues based on common situations-in the hotel, the bar, the airport, etc. -with some examples that demonstrate a wicked sense of humour. Although some of the advice borders on the infantile ("When you decide to travel outside the USA, you will probably need a passport"), much of it is useful and rounds out a well-composed package for someone starting out on the road to using the language overseas. [+]-Toby Green.

Review RedShift 4 / Focus Multimedia Ltd:Astronomy is a very popular hobby, and many people find computer software helps them to pursue this interest. Redshift 4 just goes to show that software can be very flexible in its approach, helping you both to identify what you are looking at in the night sky on any particular date, and learn more about astronomy in general. Past incarnations of this title have been regarded by many as the best astronomy software available. The great thing about Redshift 4 is that it works well for both novice and experienced astronomer. The Sky Diary is on hand for you to look up interesting events for the month ahead from meteor showers to phases of the moon and eclipses. You get an explanation of what each event is, and when best to look out for it. Manipulating the night sky is easy too. You can add and remove objects easily, and can even plot spacecraft as they track across the sky if you want to observe them. If armchair learning is more to your liking, then you can browse the Photo Gallery, with its 400 plus photos taken with some of the most sophisticated telescopes in the world, or view the multimedia tutorials which talk you through the history of the solar system, the Big Bang, double stars and more. And for a real treat, how about observing the night sky from the surface of Mars, or Jupiter, or the Moon? RedShift always was a powerful piece of software. [+]It just got better. -Sandra Vogel.

Review House Ejay / eJay:For DJs and computer musos everywhere, the name eJay has become a byword for sharp and stylish domestic music-making software; this new title should do nothing to detract from that hard-earned reputation. House eJay, the latest addition to the thoroughbred eJay stable, covers progressive, filtered, disco and vocal house music. As with virtually all eJay products, the essence of the kit is a simple drag-n-drop technique. Using this essential tool, you choose a loop, riff or sample from more than 3,000 samples archived on-disk. Having made your selection, simply shunt it onto the 24-track arranger, and you're away. You can move these samples around as much and as often as you like: indeed the laidback eJay software ethos could be construed as an open invitation to musical doodling! However, if you can resist faffing around, you'll also find lots of other features: a Groove Generator, a Drum Sequencer, FX Studio, a booster and-most agreeable of all-a Vocoder for making the most startling of synthoid effects. There's even a Music Animator for designing some stylish video cartoons to accompany your computerised opus. That all? Nope-the title has also been given the endorsement and encouragement of British DJs Phats and Small, so you know you're getting some top product; indeed Phats and Small have supplied fifty of their samples for you to utilise. Pukka, or what? -Sean Thomas.
