This is being recalled from memory as I'm currently using a Windows NT machine ;) The trick is to use the right mouse button on the existing panels. There's a plethora of options in the pop-up menu that appears; you can remove panels completely, move them around, change their width or add or remove a variety of applets to or from the panel. Probably one of the first things you want to do is add the "GNOME Menu" to the existing panel at the bottom; that gives you a 'foot' icon which pops up a near-replica of the "Mandrake" and "Actions" menus in the top panel.
