  1. His appeal by NoYob · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Calling Video Professor a Scam
    Back when I had TV, watching his commericals had this "too good to be true" air about them. I ignored them.

    His appeal is that he makes a complicated machine, a computer, seem easy to use and he'll make it easy for you. I actually have talked a couple of people who have done business with these folks (I'd elaborate but Slashdot has a problem with anonymous proxies - yeah, like posting as an AC cuts it). They are high school graduates at best, very intimidated by computers, and many times, they have to use a computer at work and they're scared of losing their jobs over it or they're older people who want to keep in touch with kids and grandkids over the internet. Keep in mind that not everyone out there is as comfortable with computers as we are.

    As aside note, I woner if this was there when the lournalists looked at the site..

    After your 10-day free trial, if you decide to keep the complete set, we'll conveniently bill your credit card just $289.95.

    - this is on the fron page of his site.

  19. He needn't worry by mhollis · · Score: 4, Funny · on Video Professor Sues 100 Anonymous Critics

    The Video Professor ought not to worry about his reputation. People who need his videos don't know how to get on the Internet to read the reviews in the first place.

    On his front page, he has a link on how to learn the Internet (2004!) for the people who are so confused that they actually used the Internet to find out how to learn the Internet. Of course he's prepared to show you the Internet of three years ago because the new, modern Internet might be too much for his clientèle to handle (sarcasm intended).

    But why why WHY? This is basically what most people in the Office thread seemed to be bitching about, but it looks like most of them never tried the new system. "Whaaa it's now what I'm used to!!" they said, and so do you.

    Disclaimer: I haven't had a chance to try the new Office 2007 interface. I'm going to wait until I can do so before I pronounce it better or worse.

    If it is indeed an improvement over the old menu system, I expect I'll be able to adapt quickly. Even if it's not better, I'll adapt (albeit not as quickly), because my company's product integrates with Excel and I MUST learn how to use it. Our customers will demand it, if and when they upgrade to Office 2007.

    But, while I've found that I have very little trouble adapting to new software, a much larger segment of computer users depend on the Video Professor or company-sponsored classes to learn how to use an application. An extreme anecdotal case: I once knew someone that used Excel as a word-processor, because she had been taught to use Excel and hadn't yet been taught how to use Word.

    Office 2007 will cause a huge hit in productivity, until these users become comfortable with it. Frankly, I don't know what Microsoft was thinking when they completely replaced the user interface, with no way to return to the old one.

    Every time I see a commercial for Video Professor, I wonder about producing something similar for *nix. Call it Professor Tux. There are extensions for VNC that let you record and play-back interactions, so you'd just need to add a synchronized audio/text-caption stream and show how to do things inside a 640x480 window, then have a hierarchical index of tasks front-ending the animations. You could probably create something that does it all entirely in JavaScript off of a CD-ROM.

    Of course, I haven't actually viewed a Video Professor lesson, so they may do more things than I've just listed.
