Even after being a Linux user for about 3 years, this course was extremely useful for me, enabling me to learn the basics of what I still don't know about Linux.

I liked the balance in the content, it was intended to be introductory but included the necessary depth in certain topics and chapters, to provide solid basic instruction on GNU/Linux OS.
