RE: Excellent Linux Courses

["Douglas Ort" <ort@northnet.org>]

The beginners course mentioned below is dividing soon into two courses.
This is a remarkable resource.  Maybe Linux-newbie ought to know about this.

FWIW, a remarkable source for computer technical books from almost every
major publisher is http://www.bookpool.com.  Its in Massachusetts USA.
Shipping costs are the actual costs for shipping, no "shipping and
handling."  O'Reilly titles are often over 40% off list (at least most were
last month).

I've been looking through the softpanorama site.  Wow.  Bruno, thank you.
