Hmm.  It suffers from Microsoft tunnel vision.  

You'll learn a lot more, more-useful things, and more quickly, from
reading Linux Gazette (http://www.linuxgazette.com/) the HOWTOs
at the Linux Documentation Project (http://www.linuxdoc.org/), and
good tutorial books like Matt Welsh's _Running Linux_.
