Hi, > I've got a copy of Fedora Unleashed by > Ball and Duff (published by Sams); another series that comes to mind is the > *** in 24 Hours books (not sure who publishes them). SAMS - avoid them like the plague. They're invariably riddled with really bad mistakes. Personally, I'd avoid just about everything from SAMS. A book I would avoid at *all costs* is one called "Linux in Easy Steps". I've renamed it as "So, you are stupid enough to want to move from Windows" - it is that dire. The majority of the book makes you wonder why it was written! In the words of the Comic Store Guy - "Worst book ever!" > One personal attraction > of these types of books is that they include the CDs or DVDs, and I'm on > dialup; downloading and burning a couple of CDs is not a pleasant project=
