Microsoft has had a poor track record when it comes to documentation coming with their operating systems. Last I remember, Windows 3.11 had a decent manual included, but starting with Windows 95, they got smaller and smaller until they are non-existant with Vista and windows 7. They expect users to know what they are doing, or buy a book to show them the way. For a lot of users, this isn’t much of a problem. But, for others, it is a necessity.
