Hey Fresher
Yes to all your questions. If you do not have the book, I highly recommend you purchase it. Whatever counting system you choose, make practice a priority. And lots of it. The system will not matter if it is not second nature for you once you begin play at the casinos. This cannot be stressed enough.
Good luck.

Agreed, those 2 sources are both great and are well worth the money. They will save you a ton of time and will get you casino ready in no time.
When you get the software, you can even customize the game to your local games rules. And a message box will pop up if you make a mistake. It doesn't have great graphics or anything, but it does what it needs to do.

The KO blackjacksite also has an article on KO Rookiee, which really is the fundamental training-wheel version of KO. You can understand it enough to where you can do a little practice and get a feel for it.
If you like it, then you definitely want to buy the book. I forgot to buy it from this site, and grabbed a used copy for like $5 including shipping (sorry Ken). The book is a good read, and goes into more detail.
I personally haven't used the training software, but I'd probably be tempted to jump straight to something like Casino Verite (which I don't have either, but have tried the demo). It supports KO.
I've used KO in the casino for about... twenty or so sessions over a few months, and I like it. My counting skills still weak, and my math skills are weaker, so I really like the lack of mental division.

If you are definitely using KO and you don't want to spend too much money, that is a fine decision. The KO program is plenty good enough to get you up to speed.
If you ever have a few extra dollars to spend, then CV is a good decision as well. It has a TON of options to customize the playing experience to be just as it would be in the casino.
They are both great values IMO.
