I'll second that. :)

I finally got around to installing the Xmas release to disk last
night, and I also saw the issue with the Tutorial.Text menu item.  I
should have some time this weekend to investigate a little, but in the
same text editor (not a new one) even retyping the document name and
hitting the load button failed.  Opening the document from the file
manager works fine, though, so I wonder if it's some glitch in the
file name (trailing space, UTF character, etc.)

I did notice that I edited the Autostart.XML (?) document to kill the
Christmas theme & animations and that didn't seem to work.  I didn't
spend any time on the problem, but does anyone have any ideas?  Is it
something that just needs to be applied to the boot configuration
after editing the XML document?
