Good point but before you start to get down and dirty you have to know what you are doing first, its why RTFM is such a popular saying.Quote:

Every thing that you read is just an opinion, It is not neccaccerialy fact, so set up your own test box and start cracking... (so to speek)

That is true, Tho when I play around with things like that I tend to only ever use the manual If I get really stuck and am unable to find it on the net.
As Nightfall sayes (I think he was mucking around) (he is a techie) "Whats a manual? Real techies dont use them."

The manual is only a tool invenyed by fascist bastard to constrain you to using a tool in a particular way. Were it not for manuals, we would find all sorts of ways to do things with all sorts of tools that we never thought of before. Like the first guy who ever used a screwdriver to open a paint can. Thank God he didn't read the warning on the package that said "use only as intended".
I too only read the manual when I get stuck, and otherwise try to find any use for whatever tool it is that I can. I usually end up using it for more than it was designed for.
