It's not just new users that need that one, I'm afraid. I just spent 
some time locating a Word doc that a user here had lost ... sorry, that 
"the computer lost." They couldn't tell me the filename or when they 
wrote it, which didn't help.

Including how to move files around between them when you need to.

... and that you need an ISP, a modem isn't good enough. I've had people 
  here come to me and ask why "my internet doesn't work at home" when 
they're either not signed up for an ISP or not dialling out. Thankfully 
nobody with an ISP account but no MODEM yet.
