The book you're after depends on what you want to do. There are plenty
of specific Linux books, but I'm yet to find a general introduction to
Linux. Okay, there are the for dummies series, but they're really
written for those wanting an excuse not to change!

Then ask away. We're all warm and cuddly around here and will bend over
backwards to help you on this new adventure.

Don't worry about that. Ask. That said, I bet after about 2 weeks, the
number of questions drops like a brick as just about everything under
linux is intuitive.

You may also like to use the uk.comp.os.linux usenet group which again
is full of really nice bods eager to help.

TTFN
