Oof! Just a month ago, I shotcanned all my Netware 3.22 and SCO related books and install disks and even some of the older linux books.
But the burning question is... Does that Amiga still work? And do you have a monitor that works with it?

Just a comment on the original topic of this thread (and the title of the thread):
One of the best learning resources you can have for "learning linux" is to have a computer that you don't care about set up beside your day-to-day computer so you can fearlessly try things on linux - even try different linux distros - without worrying about breaking something important.
You still have your current day-to-day system right there for reading instructions, watching, tutorial videos, etc. Yes, a VM will do in a pinch, but with a physical system system, you don't have to wonder if <xyz> didn't work because you did it wrong or because there's some issue with the VM.
Eventually you might even get to the point where the "learning linux" computer is the "day-to-day" system and the other one is the spare.
Beware: If you go this route, you will probably never again have just a single computer on your desk. Ask @Caluser2000

i got into computers when DOS was the only way! I remember a lot of those books. esp the ones for windows systems. Got to say I am so glad we no longer have to switch out the floppies anymore to keep using the system! lol!
