Yea...hehe, love those man pages.  I think my M, A, and N keys are wearing
more than the rest.  I find the HOW-TO's helpful at times as well as other
resources at the LDP (http://www.tldp.org/).  I try to script things or
notate them whenever reasonable so I don't have to remember a series of
commands or single ones that do important things.  That's the thing about
Linux (and Unix), you spend a lot of time at the command line so you want to
have good references for yourself.  If a person is not comfortable on a
keyboard then I could see where Linux would be unattractive, but that's not
a problem for me.  Sometimes I like working at the command line better than
working within a point and click type interface.
