Title: Read the How-To's instead!
Review: I've been working with Linux now for 2 years i started off with redhat and now prefer slackware. I would say that i am now pretty proficient with linux, and i achieved this proficiency through reading the how-tos that came with linux, and from sunsite.. You'll find, if you're new to linux, that no book will ever be _THE_ book for linux, ive read a few allegedly good ones, to which readers had given quite good rates to. However i found them all to be useless when it came to getting some real-world stuff done. All these books are the same, they're all for the beginner, and even if you think of yourself a beginner i guarantee that you'll outgrow these books within 2 weeks! So the best thing is to read the How-Tos, trust me theyre really useful, and help you in REAL-WORLD problems!
