Hi Charlie, 

I am presently trying to teach myself FreeBSD too and the best HOWTO/Tutorial/Book out there for guys like us are, in my opinion, the FreeBSD Handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/) and Greg Lehey's The Complete FreeBSD (http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/).

I've found the two to be very helpful.

Im trying to teach myself FreeBSD and this is what i have done so far.

I have downloaded and installed  FreeBSD 6.1 onto my spare computer.
i can boot the computer and login into the # prompt.

how do i invoke the KDE windows environment?

what are some other resources for me to learn the "how to do"...
for example: how do i install applications.

Im pretty proficient at using "microsofts" windows environment.

any help is greatly appreciated.
