Man pages vary enormously, from those that give very little useful advice, to 
those that are almost book-length.  Some are excellent starting points.  Some 
are useless.  Many are excellent once you understand the basics, but not a 
good starting point.

That's my POV, anyway :-)  The problem is always the balance between too 
little information and too much.  Even the problem of defining the task in 
hand is beyond someone who is still trying to get to grips with the concepts 
and the language, so answers can be completely wrong because the question is 
misunderstood.
