They're working on it.  You should work on it, too.  Soon there will be 
a HowTo just for you.  Any problem you come up with; Howto Turn it On, 
HowTo Logon, HowTo Find The Applications Menu,  HowTo Right-Click,  
HowTo Left-Click, HowTo Read A Manual (oops! That's already been done),  
HowTo Write A Manual,  HowTo Appreciate Free Software, ...  This is an 
Amazing Occurrence In The History Of Humankind.  What a cooperative 
effort!  Savor it! RTFM, even if it's not in there.  I Love You Man!
