Nice idea but experimenting with other folks' repositories is a NO-NO.

That's a good question which I can't really answer but I would guess at  
probably two.

No it wouldn't, there would only be one file in the repository.

Right-Clicking on the Desktop would be a good place to start and then  
click on "SVN Checkout" but without a repository URL, that's as far as you  
could go.
