[support] Online help/Wiki??

I did look at Drupal a year ago and I was very impressed.

I'm considering using Drupal to store online help and video  
tutorials.  I've Googled it and it seems feasible, I just wanted a  
little more info.

For example a category of Portal, with a sub category of Web Parts and  
then maybe a page for each Webpart.  I imaging the default Drupal  
would easily handle that.

I expect I could just embed the flash tutorial into the page?

Access to the tutorials would be on a registered user type basis -  
i.e. only certain users would be able to access them.  I think Drupal  
could handle that?

I'd like to read a bit more on the Wiki type cross referencing - where  
a term links to the relevant page - and how it works.  Does anyone  
know the technical term for it?

Do you think Drupal is a good fit, or do you know of anything more  
suitable?  Does anyone have a view on using Wordpress instead?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks
