I am impressed.  It is a good way to write a book :)

However: I'm stuck on the <acronym> tag.  I first saw it around IDE, then found
it not around BIOS or SCSI etc.  'twould seem to me that these, and more, are
unequivocal throughout the Manual and could, therefore, be treated as part of
the final process.  Else I could easily acronymize (sorry), the occurrences I find.

I think i'm confused, because i tend to say I de E, buyos, skuzy.
The latter two seem more acronymy than the first...  (I used to say Lie Nux!)

Abbreviation tag anyone?
Pronunciation section?
RAID is definitely worthy.

John.
