The tutorials do help when he comes out with a new version. It makes it much easier to learn the program. I usually download the tutorials so that I can look at them at my leisure.
I'd still look at an accountant service or book keeping service to set up employees. You don't want to forget something and have to catch up later out of your own pocket. Workman's comp, unemployment, some other stuff that's easy to miss if you're not familiar. An hour with your accountant and you're sure about what needs done.
