The game is called catch up. Commercial distributors of Linux are still
playing this game in many places. Whether it be catching up to M$, BSD, or
Apple, many of these cultures/corporations have created very good things
that Linux can use to great advantage.
I run Linux professionally as a sysadmin for a small company. I was once
the president of my University's LUG.
I bought boxed sets of SuSE for the manuals, as well as the CD's. You
downloaded yours for free? Well, I'm happy for you. Go find a printer.
Nothing online will help you when you can't get a prompt up[1]. And dead
trees are more interesting in the lavatory than laptops that make your
knees blisteringly hot.
Sincerely,
Jeremiah
[0]I brought a used laptop from a friend of a friend. I requested the CD's
and License for the Windows 98 that came with the laptop. It included a
129 page booklet on how to use Windows 98. 129 pages included screenshots,
a dictionary, beginners and advanced sections. This is not counting the
index or EULA.
[1] Any other prompt than a non-networked console. With no man pages yet
installed. Don't belive it happens? Just mention 'bad drive geometry' and
'kernel panic' in the appropriately dark sections of alt.os.linux
