...and start asking questions. Or wikipedia. You'll learn more and faster by asking questions and getting answers yourself than by anyone here spoon-feeding them to you.
Download and burn a couple of 'live' Linux distro CDs. With those, you can try out and learn Linux basics risk-free (run directly from the CD, no mods to your computer) or go ahead and insta!l in a dual boot setup. And of course you have a N900 to learn with..

im on my way to my local community college. they have some linux courses. let you guys know what their offering. so let me know the crap that can be weeded out.
If you are a book reader, I found "Think Unix" written long ago, to be a great help. It's geared to people who are going to be using Unix and variants (he used Red Hat for all the examples), not programmers or developers.

I'm new to linux, too and asked a similar question back in november. Got a lot of good replies. However, administrators moved it to off-topic, so you may not have found it here.
