I read this on the N810 and it's a pain to see all this noise.

noise for you, useful information for others.
it always amazes me to see "seniority" on webforums - i mean, you complain that this device will forever languish as a geek tool, and then you intimidate newcomers.

search is inaccurate at best and certainly not as efficient or up to date as live responses from people who haven't already sold their tablets for an eeepc.

do i really care that the 770 had bugs in 2006? not really. But that's what i get when i do a search.

does the wiki provide simple and common place answers? no.
are there good stickys in each forum to provide common answers? no.

you may have pains with all the noise from newbies, but for some of us, the noise comes from the other end of the spectrum.

just because you got this toy before i did and joined this forum before i did, doesn't mean you need to be nasty or a "jerk." (not that i'm directing this at you, rather i'm speaking to the more general mood of this place).

linux based software demands community interactions - simple as that. If you want a real community, you've got to take the new with the old, the newbs with the seniors.
