Inside you'll find another shrink-wrapped CD in a jewel case and a manual which is more like a book. It's the most complete guide I've ever seen and at a little over 125 pages, it covers [almost] everything you could possibly do with the program. It's written in very elementary terms so those with less computer software experience will have no trouble doing what they want. The interface is even simpler and there's a wizard for every major operation. The more adventurous types can access everything but even there I haven't found anything confusing.
