Over time, _Running Linux_ has generally been acknowledged as the best
book in this genre. That's why I make that suggestion. However, I can't
personally evaluate that, since I'm not a newbie Windows user. I'm
always interested in better newbie books. Some time ago, I bought _Linux
For Dummies_ and had Nancy take a look at it. She thought it was pretty
good.
If anyone has any _newbie-tested_ book recommendations, I'm interested.
