You’ve probably hit the frustration when needing to find information about hardware or software. You reach for the manual, only to not be able to find what you need. You just can’t find things easily. They lead to nothing but frustration many times.
Take, in comparison, a PDF. You can do a quick search and find what you’re looking for. Electronic manuals are the way to go. You can read them on your phone, or on your desktop. Online help isn’t intuitative, no. You have to know what you’re looking for in order to find it.

I do find this site useful, althought I still cannot find the manual for my Denon AVR-65. However, I am the one who posted the request for that manual :P

What is the music playing at this web site, disturbing when I try to watch a clip with Chris Pirillo, and how do I turn it off, and still being able to listen to what Chris has to say, in the clip I am watching?

Googling the hardware or software name and maybe version number is often enough to find a useful manual, usually a PDF. I found a KitchenAid food chopper manual just that way yesterday, and have done this with other software and hardware.

Looks like a useful site. Just a couple of weeks ago I was having a little problem with a Sony DVD Player that I own. When I tried to eject a disk “LOCKED” would scroll across the little display on the player. It is a several years old so the manuals were no where to be found. So I went to Sony’s website and found the Manual in PDF Format and learned that there was a sequence of buttons that need to be pressed to unlock a Child Lock that some how got out on. But thankfully Sony had it on there site and it extremely easy to find the file on there site.

Great Website.
You can also go to the manufacturer’s website for a PDF manual, but with this site, it makes it easier to find your manual.

It would be great to have lots and lots of .pdf’s.
But nothing will ever replace the traditional books, nothing!
