Product Description
Product Description
Begun as a small-scale labor of love, Linux has blossomed into the world's most versatile and flexible operating system. The reasons for its appeal are manifold: This open source OS allows numerous users to simultaneously work with multiple applications without experiencing any traffic problems, thus making it an ideal operating system for web servers. In addition, Linux is an extremely stable operating system that serves as a platform for an ever-growing number of quality applications. And not least, it's free! You can download it for nothing from the Internet.
With Linux In Easy Steps, joining the Linux Revolution is as easy as one, two, three. Following its simple instructions, you can learn to install the operating system, explore the desktop, and launch great applications. This fully illustrated primer teaches you to climb the Linux directory tree, navigate with the File Browser, and much more. Its easy-to-understand tutorials guide you through the OpenOffice business suite and media applications that let you enjoy the web, music, video, and graphics. Later chapters show you how to use the Linux shell to communicate directly with the kernel at the very heart of the operating system, allowing you total control over your Linux system.
Linux In Easy Steps opens the door to a whole new world of digital possibilities!

Easy to use Linux book,
By
This review is from: Linux in Easy Steps (Paperback)
I needed to use Linex for thye first time in years so was very rusty. I needed a book that could bring me upto speed in a weekend and this book did the trick. Lots of examples and help. How to dual boot with windows and the fundementals of getting to grips with Linux which is a great free OS. I grew up with Unix and found it very easy to get back into. If you are fed up with Winows or just want to have a look at Linux and try some programming this book will get you started quite quickly. The other thing to note is that Linux runs so much faster than Winows on any given machine and has decent software libraries and supports mots modern hardware so it can give you a good stable system for very little outlay. Everyone should try t.

Easy intro to Linux,
By
This review is from: Linux in Easy Steps (Paperback)
For those that want a an easy and understandable intro to Linux, this is the book. It is tied to Ubuntu rather, but generally applicable to all variants of Linux. Naturally it does not go into compilation of modules or kernel rebuilds, but you have to start somewhere and this is a very good place to do it.
