Help with old-school display

You guys are great! Really appreciated.

This little puppy is what I'm lookin for.

Can someone look at that tutorial http://dlnmh9ip6v2uc.cloudfront.net/datasheets/Components/General%20IC/arduino_segment_led.zip and maybe simplify it for us newbies?
I simply need to make a 5 digit whole led display. And then also need to control 10 of those five-digit displays with one arduino controller.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.
