Bginning Question

I have done film astro-photography for years I am considering going digital. I do not know anything about cameras, image processing, software etc. Can someone direct me to a good guide or resource for information. I am sure there is unlimited information out there so I need a good basic primer that can help me decide which direction for me to take as far as comparing types of equipment (SLR or CCD) and direction that is right for me. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Tim
