It's not horrible, but certainly not worth 190 bucks. Definitely not new user friendly - far too terse in most places and goes into details about things I don't need to know about. It's the sorta thing one would expect from free software that came with a free manual. Not something you would expect to be the core of the business model. I found a GNUCash manual to help me learn some accounting stuff from http://www.object-refinery.com/gnucash/index.html. I found this to be better written and more useful for a beginner. My $0.02.
