Back in the day, Microsoft shipped a figurative ton of documentation. I remember my dad coming home with this monstrosity:

I really wish we had these manuals nowadays. However we are in the mentality of fast iteration so it's probably a bad idea.

A lot of this is there at learn.microsoft.com

Yeah, but holding a book feels better. Maybe I'm just old style :/ I printed myself a few manuals.

That’s nothing! When I was an IBM/Tivoli administrator, they’d ship about 12 linear feet of manuals every 9-12 months.
