Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Linux+ Guru
Thank you for your speedy and timely delivery of the book. I have been going through the book and I have been applying what I've been studying. I may not be a Guru now but I will be soon.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not terribly impressive
I've been a Linux user since Slackware 3.0 was new. I'm looking at Linux+ because I'm going back to school for computer science in the fall and I want to brush up on my skills, fill in a few gaps in my knowledge, and maybe get that knowledge recognized for college credit or at least a merit badge.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Overall a good book and test prep
I found this book to be, overall, very good preparation material. It did manage to cover material on all levels and went into sufficient detail for most areas.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fully Satisfied
I am fully satisfied with the book. It fully fill up my expectations. Hence I recommend to study also another sources such as The Linux Documentation Project, Distributions sites and so on. It is impossible to include knowledge for CompTia Linux+ exam only to one simple book.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Better than the 2nd Edition
The Linux+ exam is pretty rough and this book didn't cover it all. Still, it is better than the prior edition.
