I disagree because this chapter is of incredible value to newcomers who
have no interest at all in development.  In fact, when I first
approached Addison-Wesley for permission to reproduce the chapter, it
was novice end-users that I had in mind.

Certainly, we could reference the chapter from within the Developer's
Handbook, but it's certainly not developer-centric at all.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
