"And yet, getting new users to appreciate GNU/Linux and Free Software remains something of a challenge. There's a bit of a culture shift, which occurs for everyone at a different pace, but there's more to it than that. There's a lot to learn about GNU/Linux, and it's been my experience that the sheer volume of information is overwhelming for people. I've not had much success on my own breaking it down into bite-sized chunks. Tech books are usually too technical, and the rate of change within the software world renders most printed books obsolete almost before they're printed."
