I'm interested in learning/trying X11. I've never really messed with the terminal so I'm totally lost. Are there any online starter guides? I'm also interested in any cool software and links. Thanks!

Your key to X11 happiness lies in fink:
http://fink.sf.net
Fink has an X11 FAQ and will allow you to download and install X11 applications. It handles all compiling and dependencies. If you are new to all this, fink is the way to go.

You need to install Apple's developer tools (free download) in order to have the compilers. I'm sure that they are other ways to get the compilers, but Apple's dev tools is a simple installer.
