Made a choice
Thanks again for the great info. I've been doing a lot of reading and checkied out Solaris and Ubuntu. I've decided that Ubuntu Server will be a good starting place for me, simply because I 'can' do it.

It might be a little easier than the others, but I have decided that building the habit of relying on ease of use/setup/etc... will be better than spending a lot of time being frustrated in the beginning stages.

Ubuntu Server has Automatic Lamp (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP). I think that'll help me just jump in.

Again, thanks a lot for the help. I'll let you know how it goes.
