i know it sounds harsh but the first few years, while being an amazing eye opener, can also be a HUGE pisser!
I'd go with this advice dark young its a good idea - when you posted the thread you suggested an intrest in fruity loops so in your mind you will go further to try and learn FL as i think the one you imagine using will be the best to start.
