Hello Ty,

While you are considering how to get started, you can also try FreeBSD
with a free shell account.

Checkout http://nullshells.net and http://www.arbornet.org. I am sure
there are many other free shell accounts available now but it has been
years since I have looked around.

Have fun!

Cheers,
-matt
