Hi sphin X,

Like you I am a newbie coming from MS Windows.  I want to use FreeBSD
eventually as a desktop but I am still finding my way round.

I have installed and re-installed FreeBSD on my machine and decided now to
work from the command line for a while.  I started trying to install KDE
desktop but have come to the conclusion that I will be better off learning
about the operating system first.

I plan to work out how to rebuild the kernel so that all the hardware is
properly working.  I am currently working my way through the FreeBSD
Handbook.

I have done a little programming in Visual Basic 6 and VBA.  My programming,
which I learnt when working for a post grad. diploma, has been mainly in
Pascal, though I know fundamental C.

I realise that this is not much help to you directly but, if you're anything
like me, you'll be glad to know you're not alone.

Good luck with your endeavours.

Stuart.
