Linux for Non-Geeks

A Hands-On, Project-Based, Take-It-Slow Guidebook

von Rickford Grant
Linux is a completely free operating system that can do everything that Microsoft Windows can, often better. It´s fast, it doesn´t crash, it comes with all sorts of free software, you can change the way it looks, and guess what - it´s virtually virus free!
Time was when only geeks could install, much less use Linux. But not anymore. It´s easier than ever to use Linux, even if you have trouble finding your computer´s „On“ switch. You can even use Linux and Windows on the same machine - Linux for NonGeeks will show you how.
Linux for Non-Geeks is a painless (we promise!) guide to using Linux. A series of projects throughout the book teach you how to:
° Surf the Web, shop online, and send email ° Chat with your friends on AIM, MSN, and Yahoo! ° Write letters or manage your finances ° View, print, and edit your digital photos ° Burn CDs, play your MP3s, and watch videos ° Play games (including many free, family-friendly ones!)
You´ll have fun, save yourself some money, and wonder why you waited so long to give it a try.
The 2 CD set contains a complete version of Linux based on Red Hat´s Fedora Core, along with useful, free programs that include everything you need to surf the Web, send email, create documents, view photo, burn CDs, and more!
