Segment Two- Moving To Linux– A book by Marcel
Gagné
Tonight we will be joined by long time Linux Show friend
Marcel Gagné. Marcel has been a guest on
TLS before as a interesting and dynamic member of our community. We
are pleased to have him on the show once again, and for such a good
reason, the release of his new book Moving To
LINUX This book is also subtitled as a tease, “Kiss the
Blue Screen of Death Goodbye.”
Marcel Gagné is probably best known as the award-winning
author of the Linux Journal “Cooking with Linux Series”, for which
he received the Readers’ Choice award for favorite column three
years in a row. His first book was the highly acclaimed “Linux
System Administration : A User’s Guide”.
Marcel is also one of the best known advocacy voices of the
Linux community, he has written over 200 articles on Linux and open
source projects for various publications including Linux Journal,
InformIT, Unix Review, SysAdmin magazine, and others. A long-time
systems and network administrator, he now runs a systems and
network consulting firm, is a published science fiction author and
editor, a pilot, an avid science and astronomy buff, and a former
top 40 disc jockey. He also folds a mean Origami T-Rex and is one
hell of a nice guy.
Jeffs Review so far….
“I have to tell you the truth, it is show time and I have only
had the chance to read a few chapters in Marcels new book. But so
far I really love it. It is an idea first time primer to the Linux
newbie and more readable than Linux for Dummies. I am also very
happy that there is a companion CD. Just like Marcel’s well know
column at Linux Journal Cooking with Linux the
book is laid out in a very well organized step by step fashion.
This will make all the more easier for the newbie. I also love the
fact that Marcel does not take life so serious, and can inject
humor in the book. The ONLY suggestion I would make is that marcel
write a companion piece that would create a series of tasks or
exercises to supplement each chapters topic. That would make this
very well written book also available as a text material. We need
more good Linux Texts and this is a candidate.”
