The way he floundered looking for somewhere to get started was quite instructive. I've used several programs over the years that would have really benefitted from a UI element that indicated 'click here if you have no idea how this program works', and that took you to useful help.
Not every aspect of a program has to be designed for beginners. But having just one clear item to get people started might be a boon. It doesn't have to assume no knowledge of computers; perhaps just no knowledge of the problem domain or the particular program's workflow.
