Help With Initial Windows Vista Home Premium Setup

Hi:

I have a friend that recently bought a new computer with Vista Home
Premium installed and wants me to set it up for him. I am an experienced XP
user, but no nothing about Vista etc.

Is there a recommended website and/or tutorial that I can review prior to
initial setup that will explain the differences in XP and Vista? Any help
along this line will be appreciated.

Thanks,

ColTom2

1. Take it out of box.
2. Plug it in.
3. Switch in on.
4. Throw away box.
5. Go home.

The box is actually meant to be kept, its made of hard plastic, its not like
the old card board box that XP and older versions of Windows came in.
