Hi, I did pay for the $99 one on one training when I bought my mac, as I was new to the Mac OS. If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't pay for it.None of this has anything to do with the staff or their knowledge as it does with the inordinate noise in the store making it almost impossible to hear voiceover. The store needs a quiet office where one can get the most out of the training or they need to make use of face time in order to give everyone an optimum experience.

There's probably enough resources between these lists and my fertile little brain to learn and do what I need to do;-) It'd be a definite luxury to spend $100 for something I might/might not need. On the other hand, it might be worthwhile to pick apples brains on certain accessibility topics, and It might keep me busy during the winter months - I'm going to have to think about it a bit.
