Hello and welcome to Wikibooks!
Here are some tips to help you get started:
 * You should sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.
 * Remember to conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
 * If you're a Wikipedian, see Wikibooks for Wikipedians for a primer on how things work here (it's a little different).
 * If you want to base your work here on materials from Wikipedia, please use WB:RFI to bring the material over in compliance with the GFDL.
 * If you're an instructor and plan on using wikibooks for a class project, see Guidelines for class projects
 * Please say hello at the Staff Lounge with any questions or ideas.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Please take a look at Naming policy before starting a new book.
 * Remember to maintain a Neutral point of view.
 * Explore, be bold in editing pages, and have fun!

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the Study help desk, the Staff lounge, IRC channel or ask me personally on my talk page. For site news, see the Bulletin board. It might be an idea if you add this page to your "watchlist" so that you can see when any new information is posted there.

umm.... you probably should study Unix a bit more.
In "A Neutral Look at Operating Systems" in the OS X section, you mentioned that CD's would be mounted in ./Volumes/etc...etc....  The problem with your statement is that they are not in "./Volumes" - they are in "/Volumes". In Unix, the period ( . ) represents the current directory. So if the user were in their home directory and tried to go to ./Volumes, unless their name were Volumes, they would get an error. Brandon Johnsonn 18:00, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
