I recommend the "Getting Started" link.

To play on one computer, you'll need some form of software to broadcast your keystrokes. Keyclone is one of the easiest to set up, it costs $20 for a lifetime license; if you get another PC down the road, you can transfer the license for free. ISBoxer with ISBoxerToolkit used to be a lot harder to set up, but it contains a wizard now, which simplifies things greatly; the mouse broadcasting and PiP swap is a ton faster, but this application is a yearly subscription. Game Commander Pro, also has a fee, and also has wizards for set up; I haven't investigated this one a whole lot. Octopus is a free option, but as far as I know is no longer maintained. HotKeyNet and AutoHotKey are other options, I don't really know a whole lot of these, but their set up is a lot harder, although they're strong options.
Once you have your software going, you'll need a method to control the toons. The easiest is a focus based system, where every toon focuses the active toon. Your follow key is something like /Follow Focus. Your dps is /cast Spell [target=focustarget]. FTL, is a much stronger assist method, but its quite a bit harder to set up, and every time you get new spells you need to adapt it; ISBoxer has automatic FTL options, which is nice. If you want focus free, and to not avoid the complications of FTL, do a forum search for the "No Focus Manifesto"; this is a target=targettarget system, which I currently use.
I'd very strongly recommend you buy two accounts from your local store.
Or if you already have one account, buy a second account.
Don't activate the second account immediatly.
Instead, go into account management on the main account.
Find the recruit a friend link and use it.
Send an invite to your own email from the first account.
Use that code (the one blizzard emails you) to start your second account.
Once the second account is up and running, use your retail wow game to upgrade it to a full game.
If you're going alliance shammies, you'll need to upgrade to at least burning crusade, before you can make the shammy on the second account.
Definitely get the Jamba addon, its a sticky in the macro/addon forum.
Check out the Wiki, and read the stickies.
This is a great community for support and such, but the sticky's have a ton of info.
You'll get much better support, if you demonstrate you have investigated the options yourself somewhat.
