Actually, this book was more helpful than I thought. I consider myself handy around a computer, but I'm a n00b to Linux. It's only been two months since I switched to Fedora. I'm a geek, but not geeky enough to really get under the hood than I thought. So I bought the book.

It helped that Fry's is giving a rebate on it, too. Smile

So far, I like it. I'm just going back and forth with relevant chapters and I find it filling in some gaps in my Linux knowledge.

Another book I've got to buy? NAW, Just kidding. I bought the Linux Cookbook by Stutz before I saw this review. Since it's based on Debian, and Libranet is a Debian-based Distro, I'll get it done first Wink, and THEN I'll get brave enuff to buy this one to try out the Fedora Core (which I haven't been too successful with to date Laughing) Thanks for the review crouse, sounds good!
