Counting system: less ambitious, more realistic

At the end of "Professional Blackjack", there is an interesting reader's letter asking: "Tell me what is the best counting system and I'll learn it, no matter how much practice it takes". Wong's answer: "Unless you are a great counter, stick to a simple system that you perfectly master. Otherwise you will make errors that will offset the slight advantage derived from more elaborate system." Wong also recommends learning only strategy numbers between -1 and 6.

Keeping track of the as is too much for me (at least now). I was thinking of practicing halve count, with numbers from -1 to 6. Any suggestion about another "simple", but better system?
