Firstly, please excuse me in that I dont know what RTFM means, but the context
of the sentence gives me an idea.  Secondly, are you a USER of SL or a SYSOP?
There are big differences in the 2 perspectives.  From a user's standpoint
its not so bad.  The ansi menu system is a Good Thing.  But if youve ever
tried to run an SL board, you would see just how incredibly poor a piece
of software it is from the sysop's perspective.  Right down to the fact
that when you order it on 1.44M 3.5" disk, you get a 720K disk that has been
punched to allow it to be formatted to 1.44M.  For the goddamn $100+ it
costs, I think youre entitled to a real HD disk.  
I will further expound on the reasons SL sucks if you really want me to.
