Great start - I still think there should be a section at the beginning
saying who the book is for - i.e. its Audience.
I would also like to see a section on media players. Playing mp3,
ogg, DVD .mpg movies (including, dare I say it .avi/divX). this is
all stuff people expect of a Modern Desktop and the kind of thing
casual users would be likely to need.
A section on burning CD-DVD for backups/making music CDs would also be
good as this is also a biggie for a lot of users.
I assume the sections on email and firefox are both 'using/setting up'
I would also like to see in all cases when an application is mentioned
in the contence the application (i.e. Editing Graphics) and its name
(The gimp Mentioned).
And lastly, possibly as an appendix - a list of other useful software
and what they do.
