I've used lots of different Distros with moderate success ever since suse 8.1 but am new to Mint. I am hoping to learn how to use Linux properly so I can ditch winblows permanently but the learning curve seems steeper than ever. Please bear with me if I make newbie mistakes.

Hi lnxr, welcome to the Linux Mint forums 
Thanks for joining the forums! No worries about making newbie mistakes, the forums are here to help 
Be sure also to check out the Community website (ideas, tutorials, and hardware and software reviews), and the Cinnamon Spices website for adding themes, applets and extensions to Cinnamon (and check out the Cinnamon Extras package, which will install a lot of these for your automatically). If you haven't installed Cinnamon, see here the most recent update for a teaser.
You can also chat in real-time with other Linux Mint users. In the Mint Menu, in the Internet section, start the application XChat IRC. You will automatically get connected to #linuxmint-chat for general chat and #linuxmint-help for support with other Linux Mint users.
