I have bought book after book on trying to learn about Linux and seem to get more confused. As you so rightly say they seem to assume that you already understand the techno babble which drives me up the wall. I wish I had come across this site before. This could become a classic book on Linux, the world needs it because I am getting sick and tired of Microsoft. Your are an angel Dr Bob

Hello Doctor Bob,

I appreciate your time and effort for these Linux classes. I think it really makes a difference for many people. I highly respect your technical knowledge and expertise. Last but not least, you have a great sense of humor that makes your writing fun and interesting. I'll be attending these classes regularly.

Thanks for devoting you time in making this website it is very helpful.

It's funny to see how people tend to expect from you to help them in all those silly request on top of devoting your time to write those FREE online tutorials and such... Btw, really helpfull stuff Dr. Bob, thanks.

Kelly Quocksister (04 Mar 2010, 11:01)

Too funny!

Bob Rankin (22 Feb 2010, 05:23)

Sorry, I can't do EVERYONE'S homework. :-)

rachana (21 Feb 2010, 22:12)

u have explained very nicely,can u give some reports on the exact difference between windows and linux...................it will be helpful for me if u send it...waiting for your result

I welcome your comments. However... I am puzzled by many people who say "Please send me the Linux tutorial." This website *is* your Linux Tutorial! Read everything here, learn all you can, ask questions if you like. But don't ask me to send what you already have. :-)

NO SPAM! If you post garbage, it will be deleted, and you will be banned.
