I teach high school Spanish in Rhode Island. I have a copy of the Rosetta Stone for Spanish, French and German. Of all the self teaching products on the market this is about the best. But don't expect to learn a language without some effort. The program is very extensive and requires a lot of discipline. Its biggest drawback is its lack of explanation. It is excellent at building vocabulary. If you have the daily self-discipline to make it to level II you will have learned a lot. But as with anything it's going to take practice, practice, practice. And it would be great if you had some outside support to answer your questions as they come up.
