Customer Review: Good beginning
This provides a great beginning overview to Ubuntu Linux and had some very interesting history about it. Switching from Microsoft to Linux, this book carefully explained the similarities and differences. Because Ubuntu is very intuitive, some of the book’s sections were simplistic, but thorough in the explanation. Overall, a very good starting point in learning the new OS.
Customer Review: Ubuntu Linux
The book is for an outdated verison of Ubuntu. This book is for V6 and current version is V7. Still, much is the same.
