Nahh, what you need is a good idea of the target audience. Examples:

(BSD and other os fans, please forgive me. I am using Linux for brevity)

- ppl new to linux and completely clueless about desktop shells like KDE 
(often found on linux fairs in a form of generally older people approaching 
retirement and looking for a hobby-like activity)

- ppl relatively new to linux / Desktop shells (like former/current Windows 
users / administrators checking out if the state of Linux + Desktop is "good 
enough" TM for their purposes.

- ppl familiar with linux SHELL but are utterly sceptical about needing a 
full-blown desktop environment (I have encountered them at SCaLE. They come 
by with phrases like "But, do you have a Compose-like feature?" to which I 
show Kompose, "ummm, but do you have ...." to which I show another 
application. After 2-3 exchanges of the kind, they: "Hmmm... Interesting..." 
and drift into the eather full of introspection)

Pick your poison, I'll give you your content.
