My version isn't THAT buggy. I bought the personal deluxe version.
No real difference between the software. The "deluxe " in this
version is a printed manual and cdrom.  It runs just fine on
my RHL 5.2 The only problems I had were with registration.

It might be worthwhile to purchase it. It's only $50 US I think
