Your mileage may vary on that. I would highly recommend being familiar with th
e old interface *and* the new interface. As others have mentioned, the search
engine is useless, use the master indexes and the configuration guides/command
references directly and you will have better success. Also as others have ment
ioned, you don't have a lot of time to be fiddling with the information on the
doc cd....
