Intro Screen?

Is it possible to run the intro screen/setup assistant again without reinstalling? Reason I am asking is because I am selling my iMac to a friend and would like them to go through that just for experience I guess . Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please read the comments on that article before continuing. It works, but make sure you don't do what the other commenters did. I am assuming they were doing this with Target Disk Mode.

You can do this manually in single user mode.
