I actually learned how to read computer documents from reading IBM manuals,
so I have a healthy respect for them as well.  However, I also spent a
couple of years using the first versions of the OS/2 documentation (in which
the result codes from APIs were often reversed, leading to some really
interesting debugging sessions) and so that's been tempered with a little
bit of "see if it makes sense".

I've always assumed that but have always been uneasy so I generally do
as Tony does  -  belt *and* suspenders.

Long ago I learned that IBM usually meant exactly what they say; so
there has always been an uneasiness in the back of my mind about it.
