Hello all:

Does anyone know of any studies that have been done as to the percentage of
users who do actually do read documentation - (particularly in the software
industry)?

I searched TechWhirl and the archives - and I see some articles but no hard
stats.

And if not in that industry, in any industry?

Thanks
