I am thinking it is a detriment that I know other drawing packages, because I am looking for the "XX" tool and not sure how you do "that" in SU...I too want to learn SU - but struggle getting anywhere. Unlike Hank, I have no experience to 'draw on' though (pun intended).
I just need to apply myself and devote the time time to learning it...
My new excuse is that my laptop does not have a CD player... and that is the media I have the training on...
