Windows-to-Linux roadmap: Series overview
A roadmap for developers making the transition to Linux

You're moving from Windows to Linux. You've decided you want the
stability, flexibility, and cost savings of Linux, but you have many
questions in your head. Isn't Linux like Unix? Isn't Unix hard? Where do
you begin to make sense of all of this? Is there a map you can follow?

This roadmap is designed to help you take the experience and knowledge
that you already have in computing and redirect it to working in Linux.
It's not the only reference you'll ever need, but it will help you get
past some of your first obstacles and adjust to a new and, I think,
exciting approach to computing. As you follow this roadmap, you'll
discover many new resources to help you learn, troubleshoot, and manage
Linux.

We're assuming you already have Linux installed. If you don't, go to
Linux.org and learn which distributions would fit your needs. You'll
also find links to downloads there when you're ready to install.
