I have just bought a sparcstation because I want to learn about UNIX.  It has 
Solaris 9 installed.  Could anyone tell me where is a good place to start 
learning about it as I know very little.  Books/tutorials/blogs and whatnot, I 
don't mind spending money on books if that is the best and quickest way.

Something else confused me: I have read in a couple of places that Solaris 9 
uses gnome insted of cde, but mine is definitely 9 and definitely cde, is there 
some way to change to gnome or change the look and feel because this one is a 
bit rubbish......I'm sorry if this question makes very little sense but as I 
said, I know very little - a pointer to a tutorial is as welcome as a full 
explanation :-)

Go to opensolaris.org, download and install the latest build. You then have access to the source you are running. Combine that with docs.sun.com and Rich Teer's book and you will be well on your way.
