Hi Robin,

Just took a quick look at your LyX guide, and it's very nice.  I do actually 
have a suggestion: Possibly add a quick ref to the templates available and 
how they correspond for different types of documents -- especially research 
papers.  I'm certain that would grab a students attention ("What?  All my 
papers are pre-formatted -- I just do the typing? Cool!").

Also, on another topic well suited / related to student interests (but, 
admittedly on my list as well...<g>) would be setting up BibTeX and a 
Bibliography database.  That would be extra useful, and I could see students 
saying "what, I don't have to format all those references by hand????" :)
