Resetting MacBook Pro

I just bought a Macbook Pro from my friend. We’ve already moved her important info off, the rest is in her cloud. How do I now clear her info off and reset it so that I can put my Apple ID in to set it up with my cloud details?

Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, instead of step 7, insert a compatible Mac OS X install DVD, restart with the C or Option key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.
