Go to www.cheapbytes.com and order Dale Sheetz's(one of the Debian
developers) book 'Debian User's Guide'.  The book normally comes with
3-CD's of Debian but Cheapbytes is value adding 4 more cd's to the
package, for a total of 7 CD's !!!!.  The total is only $34.  You might
also want a look at many of their other books at great prices.

Enjoy,

Brian
