I'm still trying to work out how to get the default search path to be /home/$user. The problem for many of us, new or experienced, is that trying to guess what the user wants never works. It's bad enough if one just has to remove the things that aren't wanted. Maybe instead of forcing everyone to have the same defaults like MS, a sort of FAQ of how to change the search path, add a file manager, etc. "Setting up your desktop".
