You'd better understand it either. I wouldn't want to fly in a plane who's 
pilot knows all the knobs and instruments of the plane, but has no 
understanding of them! :)

understanding = knowdledge + knowledge + more

understanding is the combining of separate knowledge you know, but put together 
gives new insights and new levels of understanding, with that one can do new 
things or can do things in new ways.

understanding is on a higher level of intelligence than learning, learning is a 
higher level of intelligence than knowing.

Now, OS/2 is written by people who not only know a lot of computer systems but 
also understands them. The monkeys in Redmond don't come even close to 
understanding. :(
