Negative Positive
Title: Not totally useless, far worse than other Dummies books.
Review: I must agree with some of the disparaging remarks made by other readers. the book wastes far too much time on puns, and spends far too little time on commands. Example: on page 42, Chapter 4 of my edition, the book tells you to type "startx" to start the Control Panel (after installing XWindows). Inexplicably, it then doesn't tell you what to do next until page 107, Chapter 9! If the book hadn't included the CD, I would have rated it lower.
