In Dana's original post he mentions (I trimmed out for brevity) the  
following:

All items that put icons or information on the menu bar on the right  
hand side of the screen. You can rearrange any item on the right  
side, including Apple supplied items, by holding down the command key  
and dragging the item.

To rearrange items in the dock, you just have to drag them.

To rearrange the menus on the left requires serious hacking, and I do  
not know if it is even doable under X. That is part of what makes Mac  
OS, Mac OS. To know that the menus always start out from the left as  
Apple, (program), File, Edit, and what will most likely be under  
those menus.
