Thanks, good points. The general idea I'm getting from everyone is that I need experience. The only way to do that is to install and play with as many different aspects as possible.
Also, thanks for the advice on Echange replacements.
Thanks, I'm getting from everyone that I need to install and play with various distributions at home. I will start immediately trying to get everyone to switch over to OpenOffice and Firefox.
I'm also going to take your advice and take some sort of class.
Point taken, the list of functions to start with is a big help. After installing it at home and spending some time becoming familiar with it, I will attempt to add a server and use as many functions as possible before migrating.
Thanks
Cheers, I didn't know that. I will take your info along with the others advice, and try to transfer everyone over to OpenOffice and Firefox before I try anything else.
Good point. I'll give that a shot. Unfortunately I have an eMachine laptop, and it overheats. Stupid eMachines!
But seriously, that's the most practical advice I've seen yet. I can actually get my laptop ready tonight and be learning tomorrow.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the vote of confidence! I was confident that I could learn it, I'm just looking for the BEST way to learn it.
I'll go to the bookstore and take you up on the book suggestion.
Thanks for taking the time.

Thanks for the input. After this chain, the rest of it seems to be just mocking me.
I appreciate you taking the time to help out. Any suggestion on which distribution(s) to start with on the home computer?
