Manuals... who needs 'em?
I usually don't read them initially unless setup or something is tricky. I mean, I won't even think of cracking the manual until I've put the CD in the drive and looked for a SETUP or INSTALL file.... assuming it just didn't fire off an install process by itself.
I do recall one time I read a game manual first... it was when MM7 came out. I picked it up, but it was going to be a couple of days before I could play. So I read the manual to get in the mood, so to speak.
As for other stuff, I usually don't read the manual until I've tried the common sense things... press buttons, plug in, set up wires, and so on.
