Linux Made Easy: The Official Guide to Xandros 3 for Everyday Users

Domain Name Com's - : Linux Made Easy: The Official Guide to Xandros 3 for Everyday Users


  

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Even comes with a CD install Linux
Even though I decided to use Vista instead, this Linux made easy came with a Open Source version of Linux on CD. I think that is Very Considerate it gives one a chance to try it, in fact at some point I might just do a dual boot with Xandros 4 Professional to open up numerous avenues of communications.
Real Good Deal in a Digital Processing Computer Book.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great for a Beginner!
This is a fantastic book for me, as a beginner in Xandros Linux. It has become a great reference for me. I am still learning alot, yet this book helped me gain the knowledge needed to get a head start.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - also useful with xandros 4
I agree with the other reviewers' positive comments about this book, and would like to point out that the material carries over well to Xandros 4 (with some minor exceptions). I did not order the book because of the Open Circulation Edition (OCE) CD-ROM but because I had purchased -- and installed -- Xandros version 4 (Home Edition - Premium). I first checked out a copy of "Linux Made Easy" from the local public library, and was pleasantly surprised that almost all of the instructions apply in Xandros 4 as well. So I ordered a personal copy from Amazon.

Although my boxed set of Xandros 4 includes an approx. 400-page, bound User Guide (admittedly a nice bonus), its writing style is terse and a bit dry. Grant's book is livelier and includes tips and tricks not found in the official User Guide. I especially like that he has hands-on, step-by-step mini-projects in almost every chapter. He holds your hand some without being condescending.

As an example of a minor difference, the first project in Chapter 10 involves scanning a photo using the scanning application known as Kooka. My version of Xandros did not have Kooka pre-installed, so I had to sidetrack and download the program from Xandros Networks (XN) -- a painless operation. Once I had Kooka installed, the remainder of the project worked exactly as he describes ...

I still have much to learn about Xandros but as I explore this operating system and get my feet wet with Linux, I am grateful to have "Linux Made Easy" as a resource. I think it has already saved me enough time to pay for itself.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not Much Help
I have installed Xandros version 4 and at the present time Xandros doesn't recognize my Canon printer nor my external DVD-rw drive. I haven't tried my scanner, yet.

I'm looking for a book that will help me get up and running and I don't think this is the book for me.

If I can't get my peripherals running I'm going to have to change OS.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Xandros for Beginners
I'm buying Xandros and this is a good start in learning the system basics. The author explains the system simple enough for a Mac user to understand. I enjoyed it very much.
