Who Should Read This Book

This book is for new Linux users who have migrated from other platforms. Most likely you are a “power user” of some version of Microsoft Windows. Perhaps your boss has told you to administer a Linux server, or you’re entering the exciting new world of single board computers (SBC) such as the Raspberry Pi. You may just be a desktop user who is tired of all the security problems and wants to give Linux a try. That’s fine. All are welcome here.
