Where to learn Linux?

[Elazar Leibovich]

Writing an email without the screen is perfectly doable even within vanilla
windows machine, with nothing installed.
Say, for XP: Windows key -> down down -> Enter [Now outlook is running] ->
Ctrl+n -> write email address -> Tab Tab Tab -> write subject -> Tab ->
Write Content -> Ctrl+Enter.

Not to mention how easier it is when launchy style programs are installed.

And in both systems it is impossible to do that unless you have a fairly
good knowledge of the system (which email client is installed? Should you
type mutt or pine? etc.)
