Try not to be too disappointed after your first week.  I've only been 
'learning' this stuff for 8 years. Buy a few good books, read them, 
search the web for tutorials, creative pro is a great site for one.. 
upgrade to Photoshop full version, get the best app to go with your 
capture and output tools. The deep chocolate color you crave is not 
easy to obtain from the 2200 without color crossover and some 
metamerism showing up a bit, even with the ultrachromes. That tone is 
one of the hardest to obtain. I'm hoping for a chocolate piezo set 
myself.
