My son's girlfriend just returned from Italy, with 150 pages of Italian recipes handed down through the family. None of them spoke English, and the family over here does not speak or read Italian. One of the family members had it all on a CD rom, and made a copy for her.
I think it would be worth investing in a program....especially to get a copy of those prized recipes!
Any input appreciated!

I have learned that 'inuendo' is the Italian for suppository . . . . if that's any help.
Babel Fish is a fair translator...
