Here's a blog post from the Creating Passionate Users blog calling for marketing to make user manuals..the marketing brochures look great, then when we get the people in, we give them dull black and white user manuals. http://headrush.typepad.com/creating_passionate_users/2006/08/why_marketing_s.html

Both the article and the comments (pro and con) are interesting.
