Another Eve noob

[vengence]

So I decided I'd give Eve a try. I currently play FFXI and have a 75 MNK, NIN, and RNG. I also have Vetern Smithing etc. So I'm really excited about the idea of eve. But I'm not sure what sites I should visit and/or what job/race/etc I should start out as. I enjoy my mnk on ffxi because there is simply nothing that can come close to it on damage. (It's got black belt etc) I picked smithing so my investment would allow me to use large amounts of capital to make more money, not time. Any suggestions on race and/or class or whatever on eve?

It really depends on what you want to do.

For industry, you can't beat the Caldari > Achura builds with maxed Int/Mem.
For killing, go Gallente or Minmatar Soldier/Special Forces. Minmatar focus more on speed, Gallente focus on Armor tanking, so choose wisely.

Check out the Eve-O forums and read up a bit. There are tons of threads to help you figure it out.
