Need to add field to user profile

Adjusting to new-and-improved user profile paradigm.

Found this article: http://drupal.org/node/874026

It states, "The Profile module is deprecated in Drupal 7. It is kept around only to provide an upgrade path for Drupal 6 sites that used it. Use of the Profile2 module or creating fields directly on the user entity is recommended in Drupal 7."

and further down...

"Adding a field to the user profiles

1. Navigate to the Profiles page (Administer > Configuration > People > Profiles).
2. In the Add new field section, click a field type.
The Add new field page displays.
3. Enter the required information and configure any desired options.
4. Click Save field."

I navigate to Administer > Configuration > People, but there is no Profiles.

I'm having no other issues thus far - very nice!

Thanks you.
