Ryan, Also, with your wifi (and any other network connection(s) ) I recommend Quickswitch at http://muthanna.com/quickswitch as it helps you switch network profiles quickly and painlessly on any flavor of linux. I've been using it for about 4 years and what a life saver. It's written in Perl and is very easy to configure and use. You asked about languages to learn, well I'm a Perl programmer and definitely recommend learning Perl. It's one of the most useful languages and is extremely powerful. Have a look at http://learn.perl.org for more info on what to read and how to get started. Hope this helps, Kevin -- Kevin Old kevinold@xxxxxxxxx
