Hey Guys,
I'm running Zorin Ultimate 5.2 and it is my first time using Linux. Can anyone recommend a good all-round manual for learning this OS/Linux? I've found a lot of titles covering Linux and Ubuntu, but I wasn't sure which one would be best for a newb running this particular OS.
Thanks

Enjoy Zorin!



Just to say that ubuntu 12.04 are named precise pangolin (not perfect). (Unless Swarf is the godfather of ubuntu and wants to name it as he pleases.... :lol: :lol: :lol: ).
