“The good news is: Installing Linux gets easier every day. The
bad news is: It’s still more complicated than installing Windows.
With this guide, and a lot of patience, you should be able to get
through it.”

“Linux is a collection of thousands of programs, all cooperating
to form a professional-quality operating system. All this power
means complexity. Fortunately there is a mountain of documentation
out there, much of it in the form of simple step-by-step guides
(known as HOWTOs in Linux lingo). Browse The Linux Documentation
Project to get a feel for the kind of things that you need to do to
set up and maintain a Linux system.”
