I feel your pain, as a new Amiga user myself with years of PC use I also found it all very hard to adjust.

I find you only learn by doing.  There are some good guides on the Net (eg the Green Alien) but most of them are a bit out of date now.

The first thing you should do is upgrade to OS 3.9, I did this using my PC running WINUAE as my 1200 desktop doesn't have a CDROM.  It took my about a 1000 attempts but I'm slowing getting it all setup the way I want it :)

oh yeah forgot about that, and there's also AmigaSys.

You still learn more by setting up your own install though.
