\TeX\ looks more difficult than it is. It is
almost as easy as $\pi$. See how easy it is to make special
symbols such as $\alpha$,
$\beta$, $\gamma$,
$\delta$, $\sin x$, $\hbar$, $\lambda$, $\ldots$ We also can make

Have you downloaded the whole example or just the file you link to? LaTeX complains about some missing files (figures).

I'm not sure...

I mean, I am completely new to this. I'd figure the sample would allow me to just cut-paste and observe.

Are these files supposed to be there on my setup or should they be provided with the samples?

[Juanjo]

Load this webpage: http://sip.clarku.edu/tutorials/TeX/ There is a link that leads to the tex file you have already tried to compile. In the same line you'll see another link on the text "Download TeX file and figures". Click there, dowload the corresponding zip file and uncompress it. You'll see the file intro.tex (the one you want to process) and the missing figures inside a folder. There is also more stuff.

The file intro.tex is a bit outdated and, in my opinion, contains some code that doesn't work well. I've corrected most of them, added comments and changed some things. I would recommend you to replace intro.tex by the modified version I attach here. If you have a suitable TeX system installed, you should be able to compile it with no errors and warnings.

Are you using Vista? If so, I may be able to help you.
