Would it better users to learn how to use tools we suggest?
I noticed we often ask or suggest people to bring out the multimeter and well I'll be honest it took me until I bought some electronics books to learn about this kind of stuff. There's one book that I almost use as a bible and was just wondering if it would almost boost the success rate of people trying to fix their electronics if there was a tutorial on how to use such devices and what the readings mean.
Is this a good question?

Gary, that sounds like it's right up your alley :-) How about making a couple of guides? I think it is a great idea. Starting with caps, diodes, resistors and transistors would be cool, especially the SMD components. Lets do it....

Okay, you are excused:-) I like your idea, and may be I should start to go ahead with a few of those, but only till you get to a more accessible place :-)
