Thanks for the input guys.. exceprt for this one ---> GMG? What was that for? That's a bit rude to say to someone. We are now in what we say professional levels unless you are still in college to give a responce like that. He is not asking for free but a paid tutorial. I think his company have project for him that he needs a crash course in Linux/Unix environment. And what he will gonna learn will be implied to the company he is working now.
So to sum it up.. Student = Free + encouragement (use Google) Business = Professional Fee (Fair) + Support + encouragement (use Google) Thanks again.

Sorry for the term, but this was the term we used back when we were in college when someone was asking us about linux.

If somebody is wanting linux services that's the time we can give higher prices. Learning studying linux let it be free..

Have him install fedora or ubuntu on his personal laptop or desktop.

If your client is in business then you have to give a price like one half of the price of the certification centers. I learned linux for free, my American mentor shared it with me for free now. I am sharing it for free. I am happy to teach for free no charge for the first 8 hours more than that then with minimal charges he he he. I suggest still in minimal charge. If you're earning let say 5hundred pesos a day in your job may be you can base on that. On Thu, Nov 25, 2010 at 11:51 AM, Geruel M.

I have no idea how much will I charge him? Any suggestions? How about the references or modules that I might have to use to make it easy for him? I learn linux hands-on from a live and working environment (50 servers) so I learned the basic and advance level at the same time. Suggestions and advices will be greatly appreciated.
