A lot of people are talking about a tutorial, but I'm not so sure this is the 
best route to go, primarily for the annoyance factor -- however, a simple "do 
this to configure your desktop, and this to access a more detailed help" 
notice wouldn't be as bad.  If we do end up with a wizard at startup, a 
notice of that nature should be placed near the 'no tutorial' option.
