The various wikis do have a lot of valuable information, but what I was trying to do (and what the OP was trying I think) was to create a guide for the complete noob.  I work tech support for a small software company and have to walk customers thru all kinds of basic computer operations.  It’s amazing how many people double-click on hyperlinks, can’t ctrl-c/ctrl-v, don’t know there is a menu under a right-click.  Most of these people would just shut their computers off and go back to watching Judge Judy the first time they saw 1Eu7otAEnygzrWw3Xgd3aCVANa3QCXDWGJ.  Logical step by step guides are the only thing that get some people from their desktops to their Facebook accounts.  The wikis are good but overwhelming for a large segment of our (IRL) society.
