The Ultimate CompTIA Network Resource Kit or Linux Desktop Pocket Reference

The Ultimate CompTIA Network + Resource Kit

Author: Course Technology

The Ultimate CompTIA Network+ Resource Kit provides three different ways to prepare for the exam—a book, flashcards, and a computer -based training CD. Combined, they are a solid resource for exam success. The book provides thorough preparation for CompTIA's 2005 Network+ Certification Exam. It covers all fundamental and advanced networking topics a reader would encounter on the job or on the Network+ exam in a style that's easy to read and comprehend. It comes with a downloadable CoursePrep Exam Guide for Network+, offering exam preparation materials that drill down to each certification objective and over 800 practice exam questions. The Network+ In Depth flashcards contain an exam based question on one side with the answer on the other, designed to test the reader's knowledge of key concepts. Each flashcard also includes the source chapter within the accompanying Network+ In Depth book where the topic can be found. The Network+ CBT (Computer-Based Training) CD provides complete preparation for the latest Network+ exam. It includes a prerequisite test and study material that helps the reader zero in on what they specifically need to study, test prep questions that provide practice in a simulated environment, and it features hands-on lessons, simulations, audio narration, video clips, animations, graphics, screenshots, sound effects, and easy-to-use navigation. With three different ways to study, The Ultimate CompTIA Network+ Resource Kit is the only test preparation you'll need to pass.

Linux Desktop Pocket Reference

Author: David Brickner

While Mac OS X garners all the praise from pundits, and Windows XP attracts all the viruses, Linux is quietly being installed on millions of desktops every year. For programmers and system administrators, business users, and educators, desktop Linux is a breath of fresh air and a needed alternative to other operating systems.

The Linux Desktop Pocket Guide is your introduction to using Linux on five of the most popular distributions: Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, SUSE, and Ubuntu. Despite what you may have heard, using Linux is not all that hard. Firefox and Konqueror can handle all your web browsing needs; GAIM and Kopete allow you to chat with your friends on the AOL, MSN, and Yahoo! networks; and the email programs Evolution and Kontact provide the same functionality as Microsoft Outlook, with none of the cost. All of these programs run within the beautiful, feature-packed, and easy-to-use GNOME or KDE desktop environments.

No operating system truly "just works," and Linux is no exception. Although Linux is capable of running on most any computing hardware that Microsoft Windows can use, you sometimes need to tweak it just a little to make it work the way you really want. To help you with this task, Linux Desktop Pocket Guide covers essential topics, such as configuring your video card, screen resolution, sound, and wireless networking. And laptop users are not left out--an entire section is devoted to the laptop issues of battery life, sleep, and hibernate modes.
