Do you RTFM? (Time out:0 days after 04-08-2005, 23:43)
I always read documentation before using the program.
I read documentation if I think, that the program is not trivial.
I RTFM only if I'm stuck.
I never read manuals.
Even to consume bananas properly you need to read documentation.

Since everything seems to be a sequel anymore, I only read the "what's new in this version" pages.

Put an end to popups!

I like reading the manual... though not before I put the game disc in. When I'm not playing the game, but haven't finished it yet, I read through the manual (usually that evening).

It depends. I usually only read the manual if I get stuck, but some manuals (Alpha Centauri, Civilization) were fun to read.

I only read the manual when I'm stuck... I don't know why I still do that though, since I have yet to find a manual that actually can help me with the problems I have

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Some I will, if they have some background story, etc written in it. If it's just technical info, etc, I almost never touch it.
