RE: RH Linux... call it a stable system

[Glenn Evanish <glenn pop06 odn ne jp>]

I think Bill Ball was one of the co-authors of Linux Unleashed.  You may or may
not know that he also put together a book called Using Linux that I think is
much better, because it is task based and gives numbered steps.  For example, 

How to get your modem working with Linux:

1. bfajdfgiuasu
2. akvjhalytqi
3. dghagysidufg

It worked better for me than the paragraphs of prose in Unleashed (which I got
first).

Just my $.02.
