The instructor seem very knowledgeable but I am having trouble understanding his speech and the transcripts are no help as it apears that the transcriber didn't understand a lot of what he was saying either.

The quality of the instruction isn't great and I finally realized that this is *7* years old - a lot of the information is outdated due to the very significant changes to the Mac OS. This is very disappointing. I didn't rate it lower because - if this was 2013 - it would be a very good instructional video.
