good. but MS is not horrendous. each has its uses. a good place to start
is http://www.linuxdoc.org/ and their HOWTOs. also I wish someone had
pointed out the 'securing and optimizing Redhat linux' guide to me...

distributions choices should be redhat or debian to start. personally I
would use redhat to start, especially since you've already got it..
(debian's primary advantage is that it is real easy to keep up to date). (I
like valinux modified redhat, but perhaps I will shy away now that they
don't do that anymore...)
If you are concerned about your kernel configuration abilities check out
http://ultramonkey.sourcefource.net/ . Download the prebuilt kernels from
there and give them a try.

everyone has to start somewhere. as long as you keep trying to improve your
skillset I wouldn't feel ashamed.... well unless you used microsoft bob and
liked it..
