Default Thoughts on Kongsted's "How to use computers to improve yourgame"

i was curious about this book. the author has posted and writes
intelligently here. also some of the chapters have gotten excellent
reviews from experts elsewhere on the web like talkchess.com.
when i finally handled a copy in the bookstalls of my city, it was a
let-down. I suppose no book could live up to the expectations of good
reviews.
I thought the book had alot to say. but i do not think it said much that
i did not already know about the subject from other sources. I am not
sure the book was worth the cost to me. and i do not see someone without
a strong interest in the subject paying its steep price. where will such
abook end up? i don't know, but it should belong in school libraries for
young chess players and their coaches.
