A: There is no substitute for hands on experience. Microsoft now offers VHDs (Virtual Hard Disk) that work with Virtual PC or Virtual Server. They are nothing more than a preinstalled version of Windows Server 2003 R2 (for example).
If you are an administrator I recommend using the Windows 2k3 R2 VHD and installing SharePoint from scratch.
If you are a developer I recommend the SharePoint 2007 VHD.
