You've heard all the hype
about Linux, the little operating system that could. Now you think you'd
like to give it a try. But all the rumblings about kernels, distributions,
drivers, and "open source" software have you befuddled.
We've collected the answers
to ten of the most common questions about Linux.
Right here and right now, you can find out if your system and peripherals
will work with Linux, where to get the OS in the first place, how to install
it, how to start cruising the Web with it, where to get technical support,
and even how to make it look more like Windows, if that's what you really
want to do.
Plus, we give you loads
of links to resources all over the Net, including Linux Web
sites, newsgroups, and mailing lists. Best yet, installing and running
Linux doesn't have to cost you anything but time, which you're wasting
right now. So, let's get started.
