Hello Simon!

You beat me to this posting :). In the I.T. world, RTFM [ Read the friendly manual :) ] is ABSOLUTELY important, but most people ignore to RTFM - even if it is bolded and printed in RED on the first 10 pages.

Cheers!

I'm going to formally request that we DO NOT distribute [EMAIL PROTECTED] CD's 
at the
shows, they're too much of a timebomb -- people regularly ignore obvious
warnings, and are not accustomed to CD's that will reprogram their
computer by simply pressing return.

I recently had an IT exec insert an Ubuntu installer CD, and wipe out his
entire machine because he thought it was the live CD, and just kept
pressing enter whenever a question came up -- don't underestimate what
the end user of your CD's may do!
