[GalaxyFlatulence]

ok, i think i'm rooted. now i install that aokop 39 at this point, right?

(yeah it installed su.zip the second time i tried onto the card, went through the steps/reboot. had to you clockwork touch to get it to work)

i have this supercruser app in my drawer now

Sure. Didn't know you were looking to move from stock. You could have just flashed aokp and it would have rooted you since its pre-installed rooted.

Just make sure you wipe data/cache then flash rom and gapps.

Yeah, you can. Really you didn't need to root in order to install a custom ROM, as long as you have a custom recovery you could have installed the custom ROM. Make sure you follow the instructions of the ROM install method, like wiping, and installing GApps if the ROM requires them (AOKP does).

And apparently I type slow as I got beated.

Yes. Super user is 100% supposed to be in your app drawer. Flash aokp the same way you flashed the su.zip. You just have to wipe data/cache before you flash the ROM. Then flash gapps over the top of that.

No. Pick 1 Toro download link and the gapps link.

Download it from your phone's browser. It will be located at /sdcard/Download

By the way, I'm very excited for you. Glad you finally took the plunge. I think you'll be a very happy customer on AOKP.
