To be exact I dropped out of high school.I had absolutely no experience with any OS except Windows. I installed freeBSD this past weekend (ver 3.2) and had no problems. AT ALL! It does require some leg work to learn and understand. And I'll admit I still don't understand alot of it but I'm having a great time learning. And it sure as hell beats Windows I installed an Ethernet on my boxes with Win98 and they just would not work. So I read about networking in Mr. Lehey's book and a few others I picked up and my boxes now talk to each other. Surely if someone with a 10th grade education can do it, others willing to put the time and effort into it can to. Good luck with what ever OS you choose.
