Yes, I know that there are different levels of user experience and not
all people find GNOME intuitive. On the other hand showing full screen
movie every time user logs in using new account is a bit strange way of
educating people.

Many users do more than one Fedora install and create more than one user
account. Do they really have to watch this video every time? What about
people that use Linux for more than 10 or 20 years?
