Definitely NOT a waste of time!
I spent a lot of time this afternoon, playing -  4 hours actually.
I had great fun. 
Created a few pages which I just deleted.   I am sure I will be able to do a bit better soon.
I did one yesterday that I printed off.
Now when I look at it, I get that old school feeling  " could have done better".
Now I know I certainly can do better.
Anyone "thinking" about it just go a head and get it!!! 
It is great fun and a good learning tool.
