From Windows to Linux - with a little help from my friends
This is an excellent book. It is very clear, with step by step procedures to help understand what is otherwise a very complex subject. I knew this was a very good book because I had checked it out from the local library. Being that I wanted to go through the entire book and become proficient with Linux I knew that I had to have my own copy. Linux is a different world from the Windows world, and I'm glad I have this wonderful guide to help me. It serves me well also as a reference, very well structured.
