Definitely seconded.  I'd like to mention, however, that Mandrake is
also quite good for someone who's a linux expert.  It's got lots of
nice things for people who know what they're doing.

I've always found his Linux Journal column rather boring (probably because
I don't like the entire chef thing).  Is the book any different than
his LJ columns?  (Note, however, this is my personal opinion and
other people's opinion may differ.)

Cheers,
Tanner
