Yes, I Google for this kind of thing all the time...and quite frequently don't get good answers. I'm a rare bird, I guess, in the sense that I'm usually looking for answers about other people's systems, and so I'm dealing with hundreds of hardware, OS, version, etc. differences. Most folks only ever deal with a few such variants at any given time. Nonetheless, I can see this being a very useful service...not a terribly profitable one (at least in its early stages), but extremely useful. Assuming people use it, of course.
