Anyone ever use Rosetta Stone?

I've always wanted to learn Polish and just recently started to seriously think about moving on it. I hear alot of ads for the Rosetta Stone software so I'd assume they get quite a bit of business. The $209 purchase price is a little difficult to swallow, but the 6 month warranty is comforting.

Basically, has anyone used the Rosetta Stone software? How'd you like it? More importantly, did you learn the language? thanks!

It asks you for your email. Enter your email and they send you an email within a day offering 10-10% off the list price. Let me know if you decide to get it, maybe we can get a discount on 2.

That was polish! Is the glare off your chrome dome reflecting off the screen enough that you can't read again?

Hell, I'd learn Polish just so I could identify WTF I am buying at the Polish Deli.

Nostrovia!

I've used it a few times and I really like it. I also tried the program that they give dignitaries to learn languages really quick and I think the Rosetta Stone is better. I have the French and Arabic ones.
