Hi Guys and Gals
I've recently decided to build a basic htpc/home server and that I don't want to fork out for windows 7/8. I'd like to call upon the collective knowledge of the Hexus forum users (at least you who are reading it) to teach me as much about Linux as possible so I can make informed decisions when the time comes I've had a bit of a read around the area and I think I've got a basic grasp of the concept, but I'd like to know a lot more! I am happy to have information on pretty much anything Linux. Below are just a few main points I'd like to know about, but feel free to talk about something else Linux related...
Which Linux OS to use
How to download and install it
Online Security
File sharing
Internet Browser
Component compatibility
I'm sure there are plenty more things that I should know about, but they are the main things I can think of at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS
