This is an old thread. It sort of sparked a movement to try to make the new user docs better. If you think they are bad now, you should have seen them before. @lipp_markus (who is a professional documentation writer) rewrote the whole new user doc. He did a fantastic job and carrying on about it is almost insulting to the effort I myself made and Markus borders on insulting. Here is a link to the (now closed) thread.
I may close this thread as well because this is a point less discussion as Rich has said.
Thanks Rich, you put it better then I ever could
