Even as a total beginner, in approx. 15 to 45 minutes you can browse Internet pages from within Linux (not counting reading time). Without ever touching your current (Windows) setup on your PC or Laptop, you can try Linux and see, if Linux is for you. No prior experience required.
I had seniors switch from Windows to Linux within only a few minutes without ever looking back. Within only a few minutes they used Linux as if they always had. All it takes, is your basic Windows knowledge. The catch is, that average users are not supposed to install software (and operating) systems. Technicians are supposed to do that. But technicians really just know a few things average users don't know. Yet!
Linux has become a lot more beginner-friendly over the past 2 decades. But due to this lack of knowledge, users still struggle. This is where this book comes into play. As a veteran with +25 years Linux experience I take you by the hand and guide you through your Linux start. The goal of this book is to get you up and running with Linux as fast and as easy as possible. It will provide only the need-to-know basics to get you there, without overwhelming you with technical details. The book is going to explain a few hardware basics and the basic start process of your PC or laptop. It's going to suggest a beginner-friendly Linux system and guide you through the process. On top of it the book is going to drop a few helpful hints. Like for example, how you would install Linux next to Windows and use both, where to find help or troubleshooting basics. You'll be surprised how easy it is. Even if you have never installed an operating system in your life.
Understand the process and be inside Linux and surfing the web in under an hour.
Take the quick and easy way this book is offering, to get going with Linux!
