What kind of an answer would you expect? This is not a focussed question with a clear answer. Many people have described their setup before, all different, a very personal choice, and the best way to get Org-mode working for you is to start with a simple system, use it, and improve it. While I am happy to answer questions, preferably on the mailing list in order to create a public knowledge base, I normally do not have the time to have these discussions in private, because I would be repeating myself too much. I recommend you get started, and when you get stuck somewhere, write to the mailing list again, with concrete problems or questions or proposals. I believe that 99% of such messages get an answer one way or another, and if no-one else does it, I usually do eventually write one after a few days, just to close the thread. In your case, I remember reading the message, but not thinking of a useful answer. Hope this helps and gets you started.
