WINDOWS XP HACKS
This is probably the single most valuable book about Windows XP 
you'll ever come across. If you're a complete novice to this version 
of Windows, you'll have to get more reading material aimed at new 
users first, but once you get a grip on the basics, this book will 
open a whole new world of possibilities.

RED HAT LINUX POCKET ADMINISTRATOR
As it is always with this kind of a pocket reference type of books, 
you'll either love 'em or hate 'em. They don't hold enough 
information about the topics they are covering, but on a 
positive side, they provide a time-saving way to refresh 
your knowledge on some specific topic.
