Windows Among the few things I'm proud of in my life, not having had contact with Windows when I first "met" a computer is somewhere around the top. Indeed, the first computer I used ran Unix, and I have been using Unices myself for some time.

See, this is just ridiculous. You choose a piece of software that's considered largely universal (everyone knows about it) and saying you don't need a manual for it.

Of course you don't, you've used it for years. But what if you didn't know what a URL was? What if "http" wasn't part of your vocabulary (even though you, the typical user, don't know what it means). People like this exist. They can either have someone tell them these things, or they can read it in some piece of literature.
