    Well i think the topic title says it all...
    I'm mainly working with Knoppix (linux based, live cd) and windows when i really have to.. Looking into debian and other types of linux based systems, but this will do for now :)

    ...Meaning that if you want to run a windows based server (which in my opinion seems like a sh*tty idea) win2003 server is the software for you.

    ...In a way, but it's not really meant to be an OS, more a means of running a server.

    @ p4_tt : I'd advise you to check out www.knoppix.org or www.debian.org, those are the best 2 linux distri's with live cd's

    If you are looking for some books on basic unix, pm me, i might have something usefull for you :)

    You're in the US right Auslander? then why not just buy a linux "live" distri cd after some advise on what to get? most pc shops that sell those have at least one *nix nerd working there who can help you on what to get :)

    i could, but that would require spending money...and considering i can barely make my car payment, with a nice amount of other expenses i have to cover and the fact that i have no job after next week (hunting for a new one now), lol i can't buy much at all. the local pc shop carries nothing, and i don't feel like driving 45 minutes to the nearest big town at the moment. possibly in the future when things are a bit more stable, though :D
