I only plan on installing 2.1 when I hear that it's the one for the Droid and it's stable and whatnot.
I'm treading on thin ice here as I'm a noob so I don't want to screw things up and need help finding the "Any" key and whatnot.

You need to install the SDK if you root using the guides in this thread, yes. You need it for a tool it comes with called ADB (Android Debug Bridge) which is like a command line that can run commands on your phone over USB.
