hi, frankly your question is too vague... quite like: "i wish to fly... what should i take a glider or the concorde...?"
(although the comparisons are not corresponding to the ones you stated..) i'd rather say that you are asking the wrong question. (traditional) unix systems are generally(!) for a server end... eg. Solaris, Sco-unix... etc.. linux on the other hand is a variant of unix... but (also) tilted towards the desktop side... in short: if you wish to do learning, on the home front, i'd rather say you need not think,and go straight for linux, especially if your background in such systems is minimal... for cds you could contact people on the list itself.. that has lots of docs to read. (after installation that is..) or visit innumerable sites on the net e.g. www.tldp.org , www.linuxnewbie.org etc... but again, your question is bit too vague for anyone to answer.. and generally (and this goes for most of the new learners) its adviced that in a list like this (or any other such list) newbies are more than welcome, but a little effort on their side is very very appreciated... well: if you ask whether to take Air-India or Sahara from delhi to timbuktu, i think you'd get a lot more answers..!! in english what that means is that a simple "unix vs linux" or a simple "linux learn introduction" on google helps quite a bit... atleast in the initial decision making... :-) happy learning. keep smiling affly robins On Thu, 2003-07-31 at 20:44, tarun sundriyal wrote: > sir i want to switch towards linux and i am not able to understand weather i must > learn unix or linux so can you help me also can u give information about various > certificates that i can get from net based on unix or linux.waiting for u r guidance > thanks _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
