I've spent more time reading howto's and mailing lists
and any other kind of linux documentation I could find
then I care to even think about. I've used windows
since 2.0 and I have never bought a book on how to
configure it. I've got a stack of linux/unix books 3
feet tall next to my desk.
The learning curve is steep, it will be discouraging
occasionally but it is also very satisfying to get
into the guts of your machine and make it work like
you want it to. I have not found any other OS that
will let you do that.
I need a cup of coffee. I haven't been up this early
in months.
