About the Book

Perhaps you've heard of Linux before. Maybe you know it as that operating system for computer wizards with the cute penguin mascot. While that characterisation isn't completely wrong, Linux is not just for the computer wizards. So many more people, of all stripes, use it on their desktops than you might imagine. If you're wondering if you'll fit in among this crowd, don't worry! Linux is for everyone. Whether you're an accountant or a visual novel fanatic, you can keep doing what you love on your computer with Linux. Whether you're worried Windows no longer has your best interests at heart, or you're just plain curious, this guide will help you get up and running while avoiding all of the usual potholes and footguns along the way.
