Nikon D5000 or Canon T1i
I have been researching for over a month and can't decide! Can anyone help me with the pros and cons of the two?
Firstly...you can't go wrong with either camera.
At first glance...the Canon has many things over the Nikon.
More ISO options. Canon ISO 100-12,800 (wow!)
Nikon ISO 200-6400 (200?)
More MP (15 vs 12)
Larger Screen (3" vs 2.7")
Sharper Screen Resolution (920k vs 230k)
The only thing the Nikon has over the Canon is a tilt swivel monitor and some in camera editing filters. Editing your images is best done outside the camera to preserve the original image.
Just looking at the specs...it's Canon.

which cameras can you connect to a computer and use your monitor as a view finder???
what i mean is i have seen a camera connect to a computer and what the camera saw was on the computer monitor, similar to how a web cam works but it was a point and shoot digital camera.
For the camera to use an external monitor as a view finder the camera itself must first have live view capability. Secondly it needs to support porting out a streaming image by software and USB. Many of the mid to higher range compact cameras should support this.
Most D-SLR cameras will show you the image after it is taken and store it on the computer through the USB cable when tethered to the computer.

Can I use my Minolta AF 75-300 zoom with any new Digital SLR cameras?
Most Minolta auto focus lenses can be used with the Sony Alpha series D-SLR cameras.
Take your lens to your nearest BestBuy and ask to try it on one of the Demo cameras.

Fastest between shots
I want simple to use but a camera that recovers quickly and is ready to take the next shot
Most any of the entry level D-SLR cameras have a fast recovery or refresh rate. Some are a bit faster than others for continuous shooting modes.
The higher end D-SLR cameras will have a larger buffer and shoot at 5-6FPS (Frames Per Second) vs the entry level cameras at 3FPS.
Also the entry level cameras will take 3 to 6 shots and then have to wait to write all that image data before taking the next set of images. That might take several more seconds before shooting resumes. A higher end camera will have almost continuous shooting.

Autofocus Motors?
What is an autofocus motor? What happens if I buy a camera without an autofocus motor? Does it effect the types of lens I can buy? What are the drawback to not having one? I know which Nikon's have an autofocus motor, but does the Cannon Ti1 have an autofocus motor. Thanks.
Generally all newer Auto Focus lenses come with a auto focus motor. It is the small electric motor inside the lens that turns the focus ring internally to focus the lens.
It does effect what lens you can use in that a manual focus lens probably won't work without a adapter.

what is the difference between point and shoot and digital slr?
Point and Shoot is more of a shooting mode than a type of camera. Compacts were thought to be more of a Point and Shoot but all cameras can be set in full auto mode making them a Point and Shoot camera. Even a D-SLR.
The main difference is that a D-SLR can go to full manual mode allowing you to set everything yourself giving you complete control where a compact camera will not.

wiil it work
will a ef-s 55-250mm lens fit on a canon s3 is. if so what will i need
The Canon S3 is what is referred to as a Advanced Compact Digital Camera. It may look similar to a Digital-SLR but there are many differences.
One of the main differences is that the S3 does not have a removable lens. There is not a way to attach the EF lens to the body.
