I am posting this because I think they are actually worth looking into
for the larger community. They're little books (5 1/2" x 8" stock,
less than 100pp) which go over quickly a lot of things about basic
UNIX etc. I would think naive user's would find them a nice,
non-threatening introductions (we can get to the threats later :-)
