Hi all,

I'm also new to Rhinomocks (and mocking in general). I've had a look at a
couple of mocking frameworks and each seems subtly (or radically) different.
I was impressed with how Typemock installs with a very extensive example
solution so you can see examples of all the different scenarios. Can anyone
point me to something similar for Rhinomocks? I've done some looking around
and not had any success in finding something.

thanks,
Stephen
