Personally, I took an existing product with fairly good documentation (ndiswrapper) and dumbed it down for n00bs to intermediate SUSE Linux users. I explained the whole process of compiling from source, with pictures and everything. My hit counter and/or my GMail inbox is proof of the amount of people who've benefited.

If I had mod points, you'd get +1 insightful. 3
The only people who can run for office in America are those with the money and the interpersonal connections to win. While technically a large majority of the populace could be a politician, very, very few people actually can achieve that status.
