Sometimes having someone sitting at your side helping you get acclimated can be a big help. I would expect your school would have some computer oriented clubs or groups where you could find the expertise you're looking for. A Linux User Group could be a good source of help, even if you are using Windows since the percentage of Python users is generally higher among Linux folks than in the Windows population. For remote help, this list is hard to beat. -- Lloyd Kvam Venix Corp _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
