This discussion has reminded me of a project I started last summer - a general-purpose guide to home theater that would fill in the blanks inevitably left by user's manuals, similar in content to my Home Theater Basics page but organized differently. The idea came from conversations with UMtiger and his wife when they were trying out the Model 990, with a bit of inspiration from Outlaw's SMS-1 Guide tossed into the mix. I got a pretty decent draft of the document pulled together by last September, but then got buried in work - plus I didn't know quite what I'd do with it once it was done anyway (some folks suggested publication, but I was even thinking of offering it as a PDF download for a small PayPal fee). It's been sitting around untouched for six months now. Anybody interested in seeing what I was thinking of?
