Well that's sad. Is it really true? People only turn to Legacy after
frustrations with other programs? I would have thought, after all these
years, that most of us went looking for a genealogy program and chose
Legacy, based on reviews, ads, free trials, etc. Legacy is the only program
I have used. I chose it about 12 years ago and found it quite intuitive,
relative to other (non-genealogy) programs I had used. (I realize Legacy was
simpler then.) I have to skip over all the vague references on this list to
FTM, etc., which are meaningless to me.
I hope you are saying that _any_ first-time genealogy program can be
overwhelming, depending on one's general computer experience, rather than
saying that Legacy, in particular, is overwhelming.
I suspect that following this List can often be much more overwhelming than
basic use of the program itself. :-)

Mary,
Is this the first genealogy program you have used? I can see how it could
be VERY overwhelming to someone who has never used a computer genealogy
program before. Most of us have switched from other programs (and it
still can be a little daunting).
