Geez I was certainly late finding this post....
If I haven't indirectly said so in another post somewhere, welcome to the forum Kinetic and I certainly echo Birddog's comments about coming along to a minimeet sometime. Even without a DSLR, you'll still learn a lot about photography, lighting, photoshop and related areas that will whet your appetite until your budget allows you to upgrade your camera gear. And, naturally, when that time comes, there'll be no shortage of people to give (mostly!) educated advice as the best gear to spend your hard-earned on.
