There are many terms I am unfamiliar with. Is this covered in this book? Also, is this okay for users of Fedora 7 or is there a more updated version? I'd like to stay as current as possible.

It has been updated now, so you should be able to get to the presentations. Thanks so much for letting us know about the broken link, Rams.

This book is one of the most clearly written texts. It is well organized, and provides the reader with the information that is essential for installing, upgrading and maintaining Fedora. It is written without jargon, so that a beginner or intermediate computer savy (none or little prior linux knowledge) person can follow the explanations or examples in each chapter to install the features he/she would want or need. The information is ideal for a "quick start" introduction to linux, and then serves as a reference. I have this book and two others. The others gather dust, as my questions are answered in the pages of this well written book. Rarely had I needed to dig deeper than the contents in this book. A great value as a time saver. Congratulations Mr Chris on such a well written book. Were I to make additions, I would have a reprint with the DVD or respin DVD included. Leslie Montreal Canada I recommend this book.
