It's a very interesting perspective. They are dead-on about video games. You startup the game with basically no instructions and quickly have to figure out how to play.

I'm curious how well this type of thing would do in a corporate environment, especially those switching from Office 2003 or earlier to 2010. I can see how this would be much more helpful than the standard training classes I've seen.



Video games are the most tradition-bound interface in all of computerdom. There is basically NO exploration going on. Every button on the controller has to do what the user expects from every other game or the they get frustrated and don't buy the game. Even when ported to a PC the games stink of "console".
