Yes I started at the top and worked my way down.

I did a little research and found that wheel needs setuptools >= to 
0.8.0.  My versions was 0.6.xx.  I updated that using pip and now it 
works.  I now have PySide installed and working and ready to start the 
tutorials.

Maybe the need for wheel >= to 0.8.0 should be mentioned as a prerequisite?

regards, Jim
