Is it me or is the Suunto Zoop complicated to understand? The instruction booklet is 27 pages long.

I dove with a company that used them and had no problems. I wasn't changing any settings (like for NITROX), though.
I thought it was a pretty good computer.

You have to get used to the Suunto menu system.

It's pretty easy to figure out, though you will definitely want to spend a fair amount of time understanding what all of the symbols mean. You could get yourself into serious trouble if you don't know what to do if you wind up in deco.
The manual for my Sherwood Insight breaks 50 pages........
I toyed around with my buddy's Zoop and found navigating it relatively easy. Didn't even have to read the manual.
The symbols however are what got me stumped. Keep reviewing your manual and playing around with your Zoop and I'm sure you'll find your stride.

Boardndave makes a good point. Since we normally dive non deco when the computer goes into deco and you've never seen it you could be in trouble. The Zoop has no built in simulator, so I also suggest you take the Zoop DiveNav course.

Suunto Zoop is an excellent computer albeit the basic level one. As others have mentioned learn the symbols and watch the video 
BTW the manual for the aircraft I am learning to fly at the moment (Aeroprakt A22) is 47 pages
