Hello everyone,
I recently bought a book called Programming from the Ground Up by Jonathan Bartlett. In his book he makes reference to this site and how the reader, myself in this case, should go and sign up to find a local GNU/Linux User Group near me. He then states that these people are generally helpful to new people and will help me with everything from installing a distro to learning to use said distro most efficiently. Since this is a goal I've always wanted to achieve, that is the goal to be proficient with a GNU/linux distro, this seemed like a logical step towards achieving said goal. I purchased a physical copy of Mr. Bartlett's book seeing as I get a great feeling when physically turning a page vs swiping a screen. Although I am aware the book is 100% free to download online. In hindsight I probably could have just printed it with my home printer and still had that page turn feeling but ehhh it's a nice book and buying it supports those who create free software. Win win.
