You can surf the internet for basic linux study material.
Else you can also refer Yashwant knetkar Unix Shell Programming book to
understand basic unix/linux commands.
For beginners its better to start with Red Hat Linux.

Came across this article about Go 64-bit with Windows 7 :
http://i.gizmodo.com/5133771/why-you-should-go-64+bit-with-windows-7
The article above says if you have less than 4GB RAM, stay 32-bit,
does it hold true for Linux as well ?
I would like to read about first hand experience of people
Pune Linux Users' Group's gnu/Linux Awareness Course link on PLUG
website maybe be a good place to start understanding all on the way to
using Linux effectively :-)

Except for non-essential things like flash, things have worked great for

Hi,
Nah.. 64 bit linux is always faster, no matter how much RAM you have. Personal
experience. It boots faster, works faster and GUI is noticebly snappy compared
to 32 bit versions. Dual boot it for some days and you will have cobwebs
around your neck when using 32 bit OS.
May I enquire

Hi Prabhakar, Its nice that you want to learn Linux. Assuming, your
are coming from the Microsoft Windows (XP) world, try installing Ubuntu
Distro of Linux.
You can download ISO image (www.ubuntu.com) and burn it on CD. Or you can
order one for free from internet
