Where do I start with Zend Framework?
I have been coding my PHP applications in Notepad. I want to take it a step up and do it professional, and as far as I can tell using the Zend Framework is where to start. I have been reading the documentation and quick start and a few tutorials but I am still completely lost.

 - Is Zend on your local machine or on the remote server? 
 - Is the "MVC" model different files? A file for the GUI, A File for the Functions used to get data and the database?
 - Is there a tutorial that REALLY goes into detail about how you can accomplish things with Zend Framework, and how to get started?

The reason I am asking this is because the tutorials I have been reading still leave me confused and I am very anxious to start doing this professionally. I would like to utilize this new set of tools! Please help :)
