It's unfair to say newbies are not liked. No forum could exist without "newbies".
You didn't give us a lot to go on. If you want to learn everything about computers, then I'm here to tell you that's not possible!
Maybe you should just read the books you have, then decide which branch of computing you want to specialise in, then, perhaps you'd have a more specific question that we could help you with.
Wishing you a happy new year in 2010.

NEWBIEDOC(1) General Commands Manual NEWBIEDOC(1)
NAME
newbiedoc - Debian documentation for newbies by newbies.
SYNOPSIS
newbiedoc
newbiedoc file
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the newbiedoc command. The program newbiedoc is a small script that starts your favorite browser and
displays the index page of the NewbieDOC documentation package. Optionally, you can specify the name of a specific file to open in the
browser.
newbiedoc can also be run directly from the Debian menu in the X Window System: Debian -> Help -> NewbieDOC.
NewbieDOC documentation is in the form of HTML files which form a snapshot of the documentation currently being developed by the Debian
NewbieDOC project. Visit the wiki at http://newbiedoc.berlios.de for the most recent versions, or if you wish to contribute to the project.
The wiki is very easy to use. All Debian users are encouraged to author, edit or add comments to the articles.
Each NewbieDOC item is either explicitly licensed by its author, or licensed globally under the GNU Free Documentation License.
SEE ALSO
The NewbieDOC wiki is at http://newbiedoc.berlios.de

The upstream source for newbiedoc was written by Chris Lale <chrislale@untrammelled.co.uk>.
This manual page was written by Chris Lale <chrislale@untrammelled.co.uk>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others).
