Not for the experienced programmer
If you're looking for a way to get started in development as a complete novice, this is probably a good starting point. If you're looking to get up to speed on C# quickly, and you have experience in C/C++ or Java, then look elsewhere. The book is huge, but it belabors very basic concepts, and is achingly slow - the first chapter has a 'what is a computer' section. I don't really find the CBT bit that much more useful than an ordinary book. It's mostly just pages of HTML viewed in a browser, with a little audio. This means to type in any of the programs you're constantly switching windows between Visual Studio & the book text. Easier & cheaper just to use the book, but of course sticking it in a cardboard box with extra CDs means that Deitel can charge an extra ... for it.

Overpriced.
This book is a disapointment. I shold have paid more attention to the other reviewers. However, if the price is not an issue then you could get if for the ability to search the CD for topics of interest.

C# quest (part 2)
This is a "Part Two" I guess to my earlier Review of Deitel Multimedia Cyber Classroom. Earlier I reported that they did not get back to me after calling for help. They in fact have, as of this afternoon. It took approximately 48 hours for this response, but they did try. So I can't fault them for not getting back. Anyway, the product does appear very good so far, and as I said, I fixed my problem.
