Nor did I say that my opinion was the only right one, if everybody agreed
with everyone else, it would get kinda boring, right?
Looking up a single simple thing is indeed easier with a printed manual, but
when I got my SE, all I *could* look up was Basic commands, which I had
long since memorized (and for the syntax we've got catalog help :) ).
Also, my laptop boots in 30 seconds or so (whoever invented hibernate
should get a Noble Prize), and Acrobat never gave me trouble.
