Hi,

start Emacs as `emacs -q' and you get all you need.

When reading the info-pages, pick the topics you are interested in.
It's too much to study all at once.

While there are a lot of similar tutorials at the net, think it's faster 
sticking with the info delivered: you may quickly look up certain topics 
later too, faster being used to.

Let's mention the separate org-mode info, when first steps are done.

Good luck,

Andreas
