Thanks for this, I actually agree with you and i do REALLY enjoy working around computers, otherwise i was set to become an ops manager etc at the call center. I have a bit of networking done at home, my pc case is always open as i assembled it myself and keep tweaking it. I'll install linux and make mine a domain controller for the other 3 i have in my house and start looking for a job on the phones as tech support.
Thanks alot for the guidance people, appreicate it
p.s. Could anyone please give me the download link for the correct version of linux that I should be getting? Also, any good e-books that you have come across?
Cheers
