This site was first published on May 6, 2002. This new, developing, site will feature a message board, articles on how-to do various things in Linux, and a newsletter. This Linux site will teach everybody who is new to Linux (including me) various things.

My Linux system is a Red Hat Linux 7.3 system. Like a lot of people, I'm just a newbie trying to learn and use Linux. By creating this web site I can help Linux newbies, including me, to use Linux.
