I joke that my Palm Pilot is the real brain and that I'm just the interface between it and the keyboard for my job. When I learn something new, it goes in the Palm. When I learned Linux, it was via complete immersion. It took 4 months of beating my head against the steep learning curve before I was able to take control and make it do what I wanted. There are only about 20 commands you really need to know. Cheat sheets will help with the rest.
