Review: Linux is a ‘free’ computer operating system #150; you don’t have to pay for it and the source code is available to anyone who wants to look at it or modify it. This book concentrates on the programs that are available, free, and commonly included in most Linux distributions. It teaches the reader how to perform many office tasks: word processing; building presentations; sending and receive email; browsing the Internet and make web pages. It also shows you how to prepare spreadsheets and make charts; create and manipulate graphics; manage personal information and schedules; and how to transfer information between your desktop and PalmOS-based PDA.
