Still learning how to use its many facets. Slightly less than "user friendly" requires reading the instructioms and understanding them. A daunting task for a male that likes to open and use!

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Fair
I would have expected the program to do as least as much as the old version 10 with improvements. Not the
case with this evolved program.
