Flavio,
Yes, I noticed my mistake and promptly posted that you could read the first three chapters free online. The first three chapters were well written and followed a logical progression. I agree, it is for beginners and maybe a little heavy on screenshots during the Linux installation and large text size. Anyways, for a beginner, this is probably a great resource. I still think an E-Book should not cost $50 unless you are revealing some sort of secret information that cannot be found elsewhere. You have no printing or distribution costs, pass that along to the buyer. Maybe you could have sold 1,000 at $19.99 and doubled your profit. Obviously, setting the price is your business but for $20 I might have made a purchase, at $50, no way.

You are right, English is not my first language, but the book was reviewed by other people. The descriptions were written after the revision. The book is for beginners and intermediate users, it is not meant to advanced users. The entire book was uploaded to Amazon to enable the "Search Inside" feature, but it takes 3 to 5 weeks to get ready. More than two hundred e-Books were sold since January and I have received very few complains about them, just some minor mistakes with orthography, already corrected. Anyway, I will improve the descriptions as soon as possible. Thank you for your feedback, Flavio E.

Also, $50 is kind of expensive for an E-Book. Maybe if you had some excerpts, table of contents, and index or something more to go on, it might help justify the purchase. The description was obviously written by someone who speaks English as a second language. "The difference found in our book is that we have created a self-learning material. It has a sequence, objectives, linking and is practical, full of examples." While comprehendible, it can be distracting and annoying. Is the book the same?
