Rosetta Stone or Other Foreign Language Aids

[campy]

Looking for opinions on the Rosetta Stone brand of software as a means to learn a second language.  I am eventually going to need a basic understanding of Russian, as well, I would like to become much more fluent in Spanish.  If anyone has any experience in this particular medium, or can suggest something else, I would appreciate opinions, advice, threadjacks, taunts, jokes at my expense, etc.

 BTW, cost is not an issue, as it will be a work related expense.

I once knew a guy who dated a girl named Rose Stoninger. Does that help?
