My little cousin always sees me admining the servers when he comes to the office. He asked me earlier today and I just remembered where should he start with computers

He already is pretty good on the microsoft end, but wanted to know where to start on the x windows stuff.

I wasnt sure, I personally have only been doing this for 2 years.

So my question to all is simple. Does he go Unix first and then learn Linux, or go Linux and then to Unix.

Also any good book recommendations as well..

Thanks

Joe

Well my fav Unix book, which was the first I ever read is called "The Unix Operating System"... I can't recall the author as it's over at my dad's house..

Good general Unix book, covers a wide array, but starts from the basics of logging on and builds on it from there.
