I understand that it is easy to gloss over the *About GNU Emacs* buffer
when you start Emacs for the first time, and just want to get started.
Personally, it seems that just setting "Learn basic Emacs keystroke
commands" in a bold type face might help... Of course, then the other
issue is to retain the attention for the duration of the tutorial, but
that might really require something different and more interactive.
