Up until now I haven’t found a good resource to point a new developer who knows .NET but is new to SharePoint.

Well as what usually happens, I stumbled across this article: Introduction to SharePoint Products and Technologies for the Professional .NET Developer

• It covers everything a newbie needs to know:
• Benefits of SharePoint -
• Introduction to all the SharePoint components
• Using Visual Studio 2008 to build SharePoint solutions
• A comprehensive glossary of common terms
• A getting started guide

So I would add this to the list of must read items for that new starter, they have to start drinking from the fire hose at some stage!
