Summary: As general as it gets
Comment: This product should not have the words 'Training Course' in it. It is misleading to the buyer. All that you get from this material is a general overview of what .net is about. It's basically just an advertisement for .net and the Eiffel language. Stay away and spend you hard earned money a good book instead.

Summary: Not as good as I expected
Comment: I already had a bit of knowledge about the new .NET framework, having attended a one day MS seminar and done some reading on my own. Based on the course description and the reviews, I got Dr. Meyer's course hoping for a deeper look at how it all worked.

That information was probably there, though not in the depth that I expected. And with all due respect to Dr. Meyer, I found that his voice put me to sleep -- a remarkable monotone that fit perfectly with a very intelligent college-professor type, but was not at all conducive to presenting this material. I had to work extremely hard just to keep listening. It also seemed to move much too slowly for me -- with lots of repitition, including repeated plugs for the Eiffel language, one of Dr. Meyer's own creations. I found that quite distracting.

On the other hand, the material is accurate and presented in a very organized, methodical way. Just didn't fit my learning style, I guess.

Rating: 5
Summary: Great
Comment: The book is of litle help, but the video is superb. Dr. Meyer is really a great comunicator and knows what he is talking about. The course isn't intended for those looking for technical details, but as an overall picture it is clear, complete and very enjoyable to follow.
