Show of hands, who has ever gotten something useful out of Device
Manager in terms of malfunctioning hardware?  Every time something is
clearly broken it claims "This device is working properly."

I _do_ remember back in the win95 ISA PNP days, when device manager
would show devices _not_ working correctly, but this was invariably
because it had detected the same device multiple times, decided it was
conflicting with itself, and shut "them both" down.  I don't think this
is really worth any praise.
