I have read the Unleashed (3rd. edition) book and can say a few words about
it. It covers a lot of topics that "Running Linux" does not cover. Things
like: Apache, Wine, StarOffice, etc. I consider it a good companion book for
"Running Linux." It's huge and covers a little bit of just about everything.
One problem is that it lacks good troubleshooting and since it covers a lot
of topics, it doen't go into a whole lot of detail into the topics.
A new user can get overwhelmed by it, but it covers the basics needed to get
a new user going. Plus, the 3rd. edition comes with the updated (2.0.35) RH
5.1 cds. I'd say its a good book for intermediate users.
