One small detail: What you call 'struggling' is usually performing
standard system administration tasks as per any UNIX setup procedure. That
is, check version numbers, unpack packages, read docs, set permissions,
apply patches. If this is very hard on you (as in struggling), may i
suggest a system that requires no system administrator [tm] ?
