  I agree, UbuntuForums is a great place to get common doubts answered in short time. They have a very active community 😀 . But I'm sure we've lots of Linux enthusiasts here on CE as well. I've installed uBuntu 10.04 on my Dell Inspiron and I'm really loving it. In fact, CE office may have all uBuntu workstations 😉

  see the man files (command > man ) for commands information.... Ubuntu provides a better collection of softwares, if you want to have fun while working. otherwise many other linux distro are same. You can learn shell programming to better suit your needs. There are plenty of resources on it. you don't need references just google.

  Techworm, the best way to learn ubuntu is by trial.
  
  Start using it, whenever you face a problem ... search on google or the forums. You will find an answer.

  Its very easy to use ubuntu. Just explore it after installation. Or if you don't want to install it, then you can play with 'live CDs' of linux. Knoppix can be a nice way to start. Keep exploring !

  A tip for learning Linux, as you will most likely screw something up (This is a good thing!). Install a version of ubuntu in a virtual machine (try Virtual box, its free) on top of an OS you are familiar with, like Windows. That way you can keep doing your normal work and practice Nixing at your convenience. If you break your Linux install beyond repair, simply boot up another VM.

  This can be a frustrating task depending on your wireless card. I spent a good amount of time trying to get wireless to work with a new Netgear wireless USB adapter, ended up just hard wiring. I was however able to successfully get it working on my laptop.
  
  Try this link WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo - Community Help Wiki , it may be of assistance to you.
  
  Good luck!
