This book assumes absolutely no previous experience with UNIX or Linux. It's written for any PC user who wishes to make the transition to a Linux-based workstation and Linux applications. This book is for users who want to get Linux installed and configured, and then get on with the tasks they currently accomplish with their Windows software: file maintenance, email, Web browsing, newsgroups, word processing, and spreadsheet use.
