Movie Maker Manual

I'm using Windows Movie Maker and am quite confused, and the Help sections
confuse me more. I'm used to editing video using iMovie on Macs (which are
quite easy to use) and consider myself computer-savy, but this program,
especially editing/splicing/trimming clips is confusing and not user
friendly. Does anyone know of a manual I can download or something that
will make this program easy to figure out?

As Movie Maker in Vista works about the same as in XP, check the references
on my website's Online > Tutorials and References page.

For instance, I can't figure out how to rearrange clips once they are in the
storyboard. I look it up on the help section, it mentions it, but doesn't
tell me how to do it. That is a pretty basic function and there is no
obvious way to do it.
