A 'proper' operating system is the phrase I have heard so much and is the reason why I got one.
I remember when I first moved to my first window dedicated server from normal hosting and the utter panic I felt with all those scary things like DNS, application servers and all the other windows jargon thingies. Now I can cobble together pretty much anything on my windows box. But who want to work with Microsoft er? From what I have heard Linux is the way forward and I want to be a part of it.
On the upside, it may slow my work up, but I hate writing content and its all I seem to be doing at the moment along with posting discounts and offers - I should be a bloody secretary (or I should get one!) Although I can see a frustrating learning curve ahead, at least my brain is getting food.
Thanks for the offer of help though, I may take you up on it mind
(obviously the help is not a one way street and I will return the favour with whatever I can.)
