I'm pretty sure mmalc would say the same thing to Alan Turing, and
he's only looking out for your sanity.  Unless you have significant
Cocoa experience, Core Data is a confusing mother of a framework.

*Please* reconsider delving into Core Data as your first Cocoa
technology.  Get basic things working first, and don't move on to Core
Data until you really grok it, particularly the ins and outs of
bindings (and by extension, KVC/KVO).
