After struggling with the cd-rom for a year I recently found out about the Haynes 124 manual (and saw it at Toad Hall publications, Denver) and the bible. I bought both. For the beginner there is no substitute for a real book that is well organized and has well-labelled diagrams, and that you can read while relaxing on the couch (or the john). Buy all three, print out as many pages of the cd-rom as you can and put them in a 3-ring binder (organized by MB number), and keep reading this website!
