Summary: Amazing Cooking Program
Comment: This program can organize all aspects of working in the kitchen. It provides nutritional information on all your recipes, keeps track of what's in your pantry, tells you what you can make with what you have on hand, and helps prepare a shopping list.

Also, it allows you to make your own cookbooks from your personal recipes.

It has the ability to enable you to scale recipes to your own needs.

The only negative side is the introduction to the various functions of the program is lacking.

Summary: Mastercook 9 Dlx
Comment: A very complete and capable recipe and dietary program!!

It is not, however, perfect. But, if you take the time to get involved with its features, it is very good!

Summary: If you have Vista - Don't bother.
Comment: If you buy a NEW machine and it comes with Vista, DON'T buy this product. It may install on the new PC and even work with the HELP patch, but just try and get your own menus off of the old (under XP) PC on to the new box (with Vista). If you have spent hours and hours getting your recipes in to MC you will need to hang on to your old PC just to run MC. Not an pleasant option. If you have to re-enter all your recipes go find something else that is Vista compatible. BTW, requests to MC support only state that:

"This title is not Vista compatible. The restore function is one of the features that Vista broke within Mastercook."

So if you have Vista don't bother with this product.

Summary: Couldn't ask for more!
Comment: I absolutely love this software program! I have many old family recipes that I can enter into the "My Cookbook" option to update and make them healthy without changing the desired flavor or texture. You can also import recipes from your favorite internet sites.

Summary: Great tool
Comment: Fantastic product did all it claimed. I really like the fact that I can track the nutritional value of all the recipes as well as scale out the recipe. The only downfall of this product is the learning curve to using it. Most of it is intuitive, but several important features (like your personal Cookbook) was not clear to me and rather complicated.. I eventually "got it" by playing around, and reading online helps.
