I did that once. A bunch of engineers and developers were trying to install some beta software on a server, and I was there to take notes as a learning experience. One of the directories kept rejecting the files. I timidly raised my hand and asked, "It isn't set to read-only, is it?" They all just stared at me pityingly, but then checked the folder properties when it still didn't work after a third try.

One of them mentioned it to my manager the next day (small kudos, but it felt good).

Very good example John, and it points out a very important part of our role, I think. We sometimes, because of our lack of knowledge or because we are not as close, can pick out something that a whole room full of experts sometimes miss.
