So why don't you join the club? Get off *your* high horse and join your local Linux User Group. These groups generally consist of people from all walks of life that shares Linux as a passion, and they are incredibly helpful. This is the secret behind all things open source - it's not just the developers (yes, some of them can certainly be arrogant, but that is really besides the point), it is the community. If you cannot find a local LUG, chances are really good you will find some online resource by doing some judicious Googling. Don't know the drill? Try to Google for your problem (in words), and add a "+ HOWTO" behind it. Scroll down the list and find your step-by-step instructions. Yes, I am arrogantly confident that you will in actual fact find what you need with a proper search within less than 10 minutes. Or don't you know how to Google? C'mon dude, you know the drill!
