[CoLoCo] A Windows user's view of linux

[David Overcash]

Interesting point of view... but I have a feeling this guy would have
definitely had a much easier time if he'd just found one of those "30 Most
Used *Nix Command" websites so that he didn't have to guess commands all
day.  When people ask me to "teach them Linux" I just point them towards one
of those, install a virtual machine on their box, and tell them to start
trying to use it like they would any other computer.  For the more advanced
kids, I'll tell them to install a LAMP server without using a meta-package.
