Throw out the manuals

FootballFan from The Stadium -

You know I have heard on tv that we should throw out all of the instruction manuals that we get upon buying something. Personally, I keep all of mine in a drawer. But, I guess some manuals you can find online at the product manufacturers website.

Hmm, why would the suggest that? Doesn't make much sense to me? I know that usually there are instructions online but it is not always the case!

You might download the PDF and copy to CD before you throw out the manual (actually why do they print any manuals as its a waste of paper for most people). In 5 years in might be hard to find the PDF for your product.

Throwing out instruction manuals is probably the dumbest thing to do when you still have the product. If you decide to sell it then you can pass the instruction manual on to the next person who knows nothing about the product. This makes something much more saleable than without it.

Also, sometimes we put things away for a while and then dust them off and bring them back into use again. We don't always remember all the idiocincracies attached to that specific model.

As you can see there are a lot of people looking for different manuals. This should tell you something.
