It'd be a great wiki topic. I wish the wiki I'd set up a few weeks ago had 
survived, but due to an act of the gods, followed by a pinheaded hacker 
from Romania, I've had some difficulty rebuilding the server with all the 
necessary software.  I'm going to put it up again, but I've got a full 
plate with my day job just now, so if someone else wants to set up a wiki 
in the meantime, I've got some pages to contribute!

Not from MapInfo -- training costs US$795 per course -- but last I
checked, ESRI's got 5-6 times the GIS market as MapInfo so they can afford
some largess.
