This guide is intended to help those of you who are familiar with Windows to get cosy with Linux.<br /><br />Based on my experience, this isn't so easy unless you either have:<br /><ol><li>A friendly guide to help you (Luckily for you, you're reading one!)</li><li>A lot of time, and incredibly long attention span.</li><li>Lots of helpful old timers (But only if you have a sensible question that cannot be answered by, for example, a simple <a href="http://www.google.co.uk">Google</a> search!)</li></ol>And with that, we begin!<br />If you really want an amazing guide, which is not written in terms of Windows applications, then I suggest you either go <a href="../../../../undefined//Knowledge/Help" title="Help Guide">here</a> (SUCS help, probably where you just came from) or <a href="http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/~csandy/cs-244/linux/" title="Andy Gimblett's Linux Course site">here</a> (course notes from Andy Gimblett for CS244 (Linux and C programming))<br />So, onward...<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Contents<br /></span><ol><li><a href="Windows%20to%20Linux/How%20Windows%20login%20differs">Logging in, and the advantages of Linux Login</a><br /></li><li><a href="Windows%20to%20Linux/Email%20Setup">Setting up e-mail</a></li><li>Using the Internet</li><li>Word processing/Office equivalent applications</li><li>Basic functions (file handling)</li><li>Printing</li><li>Scanning</li><li>CD/DVD Burning</li><li>Setting up your webspace</li></ol>This is still in the workings, so if you have any ideas for anything to add I shall do my best to seek out answers; simply email me (<a href="mailto:stringfellow@sucs.org" title="Email Stephen Pike">stringfellow@sucs.org</a>)<br />
