    Got my free Linux for Dummies book today

    Remember that Alpha promotion for a free Linux for Dummies book WAY BACK WHEN? Well, I got the "book" in the mail today. Actually, calling it a book is a vast overstatement. It's more on the order of a pocket reference guide. But it was free, so I'm not complaining. [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

    Mine just came in today. I did get a lot of junk mail lately using the name I sent to them, coincidence? [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

    Oh, if you're curious, I use a different middle initial in my name sometimes to see if the name is sold to mailing lists. This time it was.
