Thanks, Jon. One of the questions I'm often asked is, what book I would recommend for a newbie to linux? I had a look through the list and didn't see anything that was a good start for a newbie. RUTE[1] is a good reference, but a bit much for an intro (BTW, the link to RUTE was incorrect). I'm leaning towards the "Knowing Knoppix" book, which is also available via wikibooks[2]. The audience I'm primarily thinking of is the students and volunteers at ByteWorks. Any thoughts, recommendations, suggestions?
