Unuseable tutorial

I gave up on this book at chapter 2. Why? Well, the author said "Create a rollover in Fireworks or your favorite graphics program." Who said I know how to create rollovers? If I knew that what good is this program to me? I happen to have Fireworks but haven't learned it yet. So I went to the Fireworks manual to look up when it teaches rollovers: chapter 16! I then tried to import a rollover that Fireworks includes but it wouldn't go into Dreamweaver. The author seems so bent on showing off his prowess that he forgets that we beginners don't know anything. And I check the targeted audience: Beginner to Advanced! My suggestion: (1) Though Macromedia sells Dreamweaver and Dreamweaver UltraDev, these are, from a learning perspective two different programs and you have to learn Dreamweaver before approaching UltraDev; (2) Buy Dreamweaver 4 Hands-On-Training by Lynda Weinman and Garo Green. That book is great!
