  This post has inspired my curiosity into the lack of user manuals with just about every microsoft product over the past decade.  Understandable that you can't really make a comprehensive "HOWTO" for every scenario of every technology in a server product and since every feature and common use is covered somewhere online. Still, I sometimes long for the good old-fashioned user manual.  Even a link-enabled .doc/xps/pdf does wonders for me when I have to deal with 3rd party products that I'm not so farmiliar with. Does product complexity and feature creep mean the tech writers can no longer adequately instruct their customers without using more than a thousand words?  Are the products too complex for them to understand without using analogies from the software developers?  Will user manuals ever make a comeback at microsoft?  Just some random ideas I was pondering.
