Maybe I'm in the minority here but I think it adds a bit of color to an otherwise dry topic to write about.
I remember loving this style when I was a novice, e.g. Beej's networking tutorial. Not a big fan anymore, either, but certainly valuable for (part of) the target audience, I think.
Today you need tricks like that to get Twitter-generation people to read even half of that amount of text.
