OK. Haven't been down that road yet myself ... Other friends have and most
have found it OK.
Depends how much more you feel you can take in, I guess. I remember doing a
Windows course once which involved a number of apps and I just felt absolutely
brain dead with key strokes at one stage and couldn't take another. Of course,
I had to rest up a little and take another stab because I needed to learn them!
