Very different from the usual cutesy Dummies book [Posted on 2006-05-06]
I was pleasant suprised, then delighted, to find that this was NOT the usual, repellently cutesy Dummies book, but a very complete, straighforward guide to SuSE Linux 10. Additionally, it's an A+ book for those who may be thinking about Linux but have been frustrated by their attempts to learn the basics and/or install one of the popular distributions unaided. Barkakati respects the reader's intelligence, but he doesn't assume too much. He starts easy and doesn't leap suddenly onto a higher level of technical complexity, as many authors of computer books do. A common complaint among those who dip a toe into Linux is that it's a technical nightmare. Barkakati does an excellent job of introducing new users to the world of the command line. As operating systems and applications have evolved, we've lost the best features of the DOS command line and text-based programs such as WordStar -- namely, power and speed. Barkakati gives the reader a gentle introduction to that "closer to the computer" world.

DEFRAG FIRST [Posted on 2006-08-13]
Very good book. The installation didn't go well at first.
Then I did a defrag and all went very well.

Only Okay [Posted on 2007-08-10]
This books is very much for a total beginner. If you are looking for some great book, this is not it. It deals with the basics only.
