Beginning SUSE Linux 2nd Edition
Linux has come a long way in a short time. Computing itself is still relatively young by any standard; if the era of modern computing started with the invention of the microchip, it’s still less than 50 years old.

Linux has come a long way in a short time. Computing itself is still relatively young by any
standard; if the era of modern computing started with the invention of the microchip, it’s still
less than 50 years old. But Linux is a youngster compared even to this; it has been around for
only 15 of those years.
In that brief time span, a student’s personal project has grown to where it now runs many
computers throughout the world. It has rampaged through the computing industry, offering
an alternative to commercial solutions such as those offered by Microsoft, and toppling longheld
beliefs about the way things should be done. This is all by virtue of the fact that Linux is
simply better than every other choice out there. Many argue that it’s more secure and faster
than other operating systems. But here’s the kicker—Linux is free of charge. Yes, that’s right.
It doesn’t have to cost a penny. It is one of the computing industry’s best-kept secrets.
I was bitten by the Linux bug in the mid-1990s. I was introduced to it by a friend who sold
it to me as a kind of alternative to DOS. At that time, I tapped a few commands at the prompt
and was greeted by error messages. I must admit that I was put off. But shortly afterward,
I revisited Linux and quickly became hooked.
Yet getting used to Linux wasn’t easy. I read as many books as I could, but they weren’t
very helpful to me. They were usually overly complicated or simply irrelevant. To start off,
I didn’t want to know how to create a program that could parse text files. I just wanted to know
how to copy and delete files. I didn’t want to set up a web server. I just wanted to know how to
play my MP3 tracks and browse the Web |
