Finally picking up Linux

[BRLi]

My background: My family was the first in the neighbourhood to buy a PC. Sure the some others had Commodore 64 but only for playing games. I wrote my first homepage on a 386 in notepad. But after school I didn't program and never got to learn Linux as I thought about doing.

So here I am. 12 years later. It was supposed to run Windows Home Server 2011 with NZB, DLNA, NAS(raid5) support. Didn't get it to work as I wanted. Then I got the briliant idea. Run Linux on it. So here I am. asking questions and learning by doing. Hopefully I will get the computer up and running soon.
