TYROS CD's! This looked like it could have a lot of useful information for 3000 owners as well, so I ordered it. It arrived a week ago. I expected I would have the typical training type CD-ROM that you would pop into your computer and you could learn things. Not so. These are, indeed, CDs. The have a voice speaking to you and giving you instructions. They are meant to be played from your CD player while you sit at your keyboard and follow the instructions.

This may work well, kind of like having an instructor telling you what to do. But, I did not start working immediately through the first CD. I was simply to busy to take the time to just sit down and try and follow along. I still intend to give it a go, but when? I'm still pretty busy with normal site upkeep (and just playing the PSR).
