new to Unix

Hi all,

Just wondered if someone could point me in the right direction to buy a copy of the operating system and also some decent tutorials. I'm also keen to purchase some teach-yourself books, any recommendations?

Thanks very much

If you want to buy books, look at O'Reilly.

Books are good. Hands on is better. Get a Linux installed on a system.
