This thing is fighting me tooth and nail

I admit fully and often I am not that tech savvy, but I am also not a novice at it either... I have run my own online discussion forum and website since 1995. And at each corner (which is practically a daily occurrence), there is yet another corner... and a learning curve.

So the question came to me, if there are so many corners, why are they curves?

So I read a bit online (virtually no instructions inside the packing box), watched a few YouTube tutorials, and Got it working, then it wasn't working, then it was working...I swear I am doing the same thing and now beginning to think it a faulty device.

Now I only bought the thing to gain access to the BCH, BTG and BCD (which I see it does not yet support)... and expected a learning curve to it, but this one is a wow for me. I prefer paper wallets, but alas there is no way to split the BTC and I do not trust online solutions... or myself with them.

But here is the true reckoning

One key thing I picked up on and the full or real jist of the article; As with anything the early stages are the most difficult for people, but over time it will be the same level of difficulty as email or the WWW was for people, but now overcome... so to with cryptos.

When they begin to make cryptos more intuitive and easy, the masses will arrive, until then only those with the ability to tolerate and press on with difficulties of an innovation, will be involved.

Does anyone know when splitting BTC into BCH & BCD if you need to first import the Pre-Aug-1-2017 BTC as legacy or Segwit or does it even matter?
