[svlug] Linux classes

[Robert Freiberger]

There is a surprising lack of "learn Linux" compared to the amount of
"learn code" sites. Besides the resources mentioned, there's also O'Reilly
School of Technology.

I took the first class last year and it was good but I honestly didn't feel
like it was worth the price. The interactions between the instructor were
IMHO very short one liners replies. I would rather spend the money on
books, then the rest on upgrading my computer to allow for multiple virtual
machines. Actually this is what I did myself.

Another site that might be helpful is Turnkey Linux. While it's not what I
would call a solution to use in production, it can help someone new, like
myself, to understand how the service works by taking it apart.
