Stand-alone download of tutorials, etc.

Probably worth adding that you can download the tutorials by clicking on the "Printer-friendly version" link on the page you want. This not only creates a print-friendly version of that page, but all the pages below in the hierarchy.

So the Drupal 7 module developers' tutorial can be downloaded in its entirety here:
http://drupal.org/book/export/html/1074360

Or all of this jive at once (apparently) from here:
http://drupal.org/book/export/html/316

CMS

If your business has previously used a Content Management System (CMS) like Wordpress or Joomla and wondered, can I do better? What am I missing out on? Fortunately, one of the most flexible and functional CMS solutions recently launched its newest version. It's Drupal 7 and there's a whole lot of chatter about its powerful mix of business tools and easy maintenance.

Barbara, you are right.

Barbara, you are right. Drupal is the most popular CMS, designed by OOP. There are a lot of plugins and big community around. You can build any type of website such as simple homepage or big international portal.
