If you pick Ubuntu there's a free book available:

I haven't read it yet but it seems to have some helpful things and may 
be aimed at beginners.

The only thing you need to switch to Linux is sufficient interest.  If 
this group is too focused on the details of the operating system you 
might try a group that focuses on OpenOffice.org or other applications 
that you need.  People here can probably recommend other places if you ask.

You might look through the archives and see whether this list or 
clue-tech is more suited to your interests.  The archive links are on 
the list info pages you can find here:
