Hi all,
I'm a newbie of Drupal. Before, I've used Joomla & I think it's very good. But I'm recommended that Drupal is better. I've download the it's latest version. Could you please show me any document step by step how to install Drupal and it's features?
Thank you very much.
Tweety.

Check out the handbook
you might want to start here:

and plan on reading a bit. read & browse the handbook to get an idea of what you're getting and what you can get.
Drupal has less to start with, but imho more in the end. You start with something very basic and then can add to it. I have to say I've come around to understanding why this is better. Originally I was a bit upset I had to go get all the stuff I wanted, however I've found that everyone likes different things and now I'm glad I'm not stuck with something I don't want.
The other suggestion I'd make is to have a test site. Try out each module in your test site before going live. Not that they don't work, but they may not work how you expect them to. I've actually installed a server on my XP machine. Which I was scared to do, now I get to play all I want without messing up the live site.
