Newbie Question/help

Hi. I have a Powerbook G4 500, a usb/midi Roland PC-100 keyboard, and a Midiman 2x2 usb/midi interface. Currently running 10.1.5 and 9.2. Really, I'm looking for any suggestions you can give me on websites, forums, books, etc where I may be able to either find the information myself or ask when needing assistance. I'm about as clueless as one can be on how to put all of this together and would like as many resources as possible so I don't have to bother others. I'm planning on using Logic Audio, Reason, and anything else suggested to me along the way. I think more than anything I need to find assistance on how to physically connect everything I currently have and also when I purchase more equipment, how to connect those as well. I feel like a fish thrown in the center of an ocean, not sure which way to swim and would like to avoid getting lost as much as possible. All help and suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!
