read wrong manual, big deal? read newer or just get to work?

[Jonathan Zacsh]

Hello,

I'm super excited to start using GnuCash to replace my ridiculously
complex ODF spreadsheets. So as to make the whole process easier I
read this entire guide:
http://www.gnucash.org/docs/v1.6/C/

only after finishing it ocurred to me, we're now @ v2, so perhaps I
should've read:
http://www.gnucash.org/docs/v2.0/C/

If I just jump into using GnuCash w/what I've read from v1.6, how bad
might it be? Would everyone suggest I just go back and read v2? or...
the fundamentals are still the same w/GnuCash's current version?

Thanks for any suggestions :)
