I wouldn't purchase to learn a new language but I would get it to improve my Korean.
Have you ever used it? Is it worth it?

I haven't! I will definitely get one when they have a Cantonese version!

Yes, I think Rosetta Stone is totally worth it! I first used it in college to improve my Latin, and it helped me ace three years worth of classes. I used Rosetta Stone again my senior year to help through my Greek classes, and then DH and I bought the Spanish set a year ago. We haven't opened the box yet (too much going on at the moment), but I hope that we'll start it soon.

Yes, and it did not work (for Russian). I probably didn't put as much effort into it as I could have, but I think certain languages are more difficult to learn over a program like that, and Russian is one of them. I think I would have been successful if I had tried Spanish or Italian.

It's worth it if you use it! I wanted to become conversational in Spanish--I did three things at separate times: took a class, hired a private tutor, and used Rosetta Stone. Everything I remember is from Rosetta Stone.
But right now mine is collecting dust

I tried Vietnamese and Spanish (my work paid for it). It was great except they took it away after a month so I didn't get as far as I wanted to.
If it was less expensive and my computer was better, I would get one for myself.

They have an orphan languages program, so we downloaded the first lessons in Navajo (for free) and we've learned some, but it is a really difficult (and fun) langauge!
