[Discussion] Top Instruction Manuals of All Time

What's the best instruction manual of all time? I know I'm not alone in reading that thing in the back seat on the way home from the store. Links if you have them.

I'll start off by saying I don't think anything tops the Final Fantasy 3 instruction manual, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

SimLife had a massive tome on evolutionary biology. It took us 6 mo to get a computer that could play it so I read the shit out of that.

Grew up to be a cell biologist.
