I have always been a Windows guy, more by force than choice, but this book opened the light in a way. It was easy to read and prompted me to actually try out the things suggested. I liked the tutorials and have to admit that Steve Shah also knows Windows like the back of his hand. He compared both Linux and NT on how to do most everything imaginable.
This is one of those few books that I do not mind reading while in bed, even. It is not a page-turner, but he does make it interesting, too.
All in all, you have to be proud that someone like Steve had the vision to put out an entertaining and informative book that does not slam either Linux or Windows in any way. It just points out the funcionality that Linux has and how that compares to Windows. Highly recommeded for any sys admin coming from a Microsoft tinted world.
