Good stuff, there is a similarly detailed article on how to start custom development with Liferay on the wiki:

Hi Adam. This set up is for a regular user who will not see or touch the code.

On a side note. I recently move to another laptop with Windows XP Home. The instructions can be applied successfully to Windows XP Home as well.

The login credentials are:
test@liferay.com / test
