DESCRIPTION:Do you think the internet (or "the cloud") is run on Windows computers or Macs? \; \;Trick question\, the answer is neither. \; The internet runs on Linux. \; Linux is 'open-source' meaning it is completely free and all of the code that makes Linux tick is visible to everyone\, unlike Windows or Mac). \; As an operating system\, it has all strengths of Windows and Mac with none of their weaknesses. \; It does have a different weakness though\, it has replaced being 'user-friendly' with increased functionality\, security\, and speed. \; So... you are going to want to take a course on how to use this miracle of technology. \; And lucky you\, here is that course. \; \;Class Dates:Tuesdays at 6:30pm-8pmJuly 15\, 22\, 29Aug 5This 4-week course will be an introduction to Linux. \; We will cover how to try it (WITHOUT uninstalling your current operating system!) \; \;We will learn how to navigate around in the Linux "Command Line". \;We will learn how to make a Linux Bootable USB so we can take Linux everywhere. \; \;An everyday use for Linux (to try AFTER the course\, not before!) would be to revive an old laptop that has been collecting dust in a closet. \; It was there because \;it was too slow to boot into Windows anymore. \; Linux fixes this. \; If you plug in a Linux USB stick (yes\, Linux is so small it can fit on a small USB stick)\, you can either load or install the Linux operating system even before Windows boots up! \; Now this laptop should boot up in a few seconds instead of a few minutes\, and will have extra capabilities that it never had before! \;  \;\n\n\nImage URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/static.evanced.info/Customer/kplca/INTRO_TO_LINUX_SUMMER_2021_426364F4.PNG

This 4-week course will be an introduction to Linux. \;
We will cover how to try it (WITHOUT uninstalling your current operating system!) \; \;
We will learn how to navigate around in the Linux "Command Line". \;
We will learn how to make a Linux Bootable USB so we can take Linux everywhere. \; \;
An everyday use for Linux (to try AFTER the course\, not before!) would be to revive an old laptop that has been collecting dust in a closet. \; It was there because \;it was too slow to boot into Windows anymore. \; Linux fixes this. \; If you plug in a Linux USB stick (yes\, Linux is so small it can fit on a small USB stick)\, you can either load or install the Linux operating system even before Windows boots up! \; Now this laptop should boot up in a few seconds instead of a few minutes\, and will have extra capabilities that it never had before! \;  \;
