Red Hat Fedora Linux 2 is a book written specifically with an average user in mind. Accompanied by a DVD that's equivalent to 9 CDs from Fedora Core 2 (OS, tools and applications, source code, documentation), the book presents a complete solution for anyone willing to use Linux at home.
This book is not about Linux per se. Although it does go into the history and some recent events leading to Fedora Core being treated as an offspring of Red Hat Linux, the book is primarily about setting things up and getting them to work. Hence the authors don't dwell much on the various choices available to the user – it's GNOME for desktop environment, OpenOffice for productivity and Mozilla for browsing.
