Found a Bernina 830 - some newbie questions

Hi everyone, Well I just found a Bernina 830, my dad managed to get it 'bent back into shape' OK, it's been 20+ years since I used a sewing machine.... I found a copy of the manual from Bernina's website, bought replacement needles ( I promptly broke the one on the machine :) A few questions, I know this machine can use a variety of different feet, how important are they? Can I get by with whatever foot is on the machine? I would like to try to do some decorative stiching eventually..

All I know is that the machine seems to work, I have done some simple straight and zig-zag stitches...

Any ideas for websites for beginner sewers?

Many Thanks!
