Don’t think about SUSE Second Beginning Linux
I bought this hoping to get some insight into SUSE 11.1. I was very dissapointed. There are three major annoyances with the book.
The first is the constant bashing of Microsoft Windows. Lines like “…and it puts the features in a similar Microsoft product to shame.” Or words like, “this works just like windows only much better”. This becomes irritating after a while especially when most applications written for MS Windows work damn well.
The second problem is that nothing he explains works the way Keir says. Part of this is due to changes in SUSE; the other reason may be documenting from memory rather than actual practice. So you spend a lot of time re-reading the explanations because they don’t jive with what is happening on your screen.
The third is that the material is either oversimplified or is lacking sufficient explanation. The stuff most people are familiar with is covered in depth and the things you don’t know about are sketchy.
Do yourself a favor while saving money and just use the online documentation at suse.org. Here is the link.

Beginning SUSE Linux Second
None Second Iman to change
It’s definitely NOT for everyone. I was raised Christian but somewhere along the way I started question and found that there was so much more that we didn’t know about. By the time I got to these books I was ready for them. Religions have put human emotions into an ALL LOVING God. God is only one thing and that is love. Where there is ONLY love there can be nothing else. Religions have put fear into us by having us believe that God is anything other than total LOVE. God does not judge nor does he condemn.
There are three books containing these conversations and I believe the author to be completely truthful in how these books came to be written. There are some who don’t and won’t believe the information in these books – which is fine as these conversations are not going to ring true for everyone. I’m only sharing my opinion here. The information in these books is definitely something I was ready for and happy to read.
I really hope there are many others who are also ready for the information contained in these conversations with God.
