Ed Baxter has created a screencast tutorial explaining the steps involved in installing and setting up a Magento ecommerce website. This is great for those of you who are new to Magento.

This from Ed’s site:

“Hundreds of ecommerce systems exist, but very few can match the power of Magento. In this screencast, I’ll demonstrate how to download and install Magento to a local host, configure some of the site options, and create simple and configurable products and categories for our test e-commerce site.“

I’ve watched this screencast and found it invaluable.
