It has been a long ago when I first started using a personal computer. I had still preserved my first computer, 512 MB (Megabyte, no mistake here) hard disk with 128 Mb of RAM and the processor was some cyrix etc along with the windows 95 (Later upgraded it to 98).
And now with the time I do have a good experience of the windows environment. But now I felt that i should switch to Linux and as a basic learner I had installed Ubuntu on my laptop.
What do you feel about learning new things and doing something new?
If you have learning guides or books about Ubuntu please guide me?

If you're looking for an Ubuntu manual, I think maybe able to find one in any torrent sites. I suggest you search for one there.

I started with a Sinclair ZX81. No hard disk and 1024 bytes of RAM. Thank God there was no Windows then either, thus no virus problems. I have used Linux for the last 15 years or more. It might take a while to learn all the bells and whistles but it's well worth it. Linux generally comes with enough documentation that you shouldn't need any books. Using the "man" command usually gives all you need to know about each program or applications come with their own documentation which will be in the "docs" folder in /usr or /usr/share.

I think that the learning never stops and we keep on learning things gradually.....
