Associates of Terra Soft,

We are now shipping Yellow Dog Linux version 3.0, a new generation of Linux 
for the PowerPC architecture. Yellow Dog Linux v3.0 features a friendly and 
powerful graphical installer built from Red Hat's 'Anaconda', an integrated 
KDE 3.1 and Gnome 2.2 desktop environment, the gcc 3.2.2 compiler, improved 
support for ATI and NVidia graphics cards, 3 Install and 3 Source CDs.

Yellow Dog Linux v3.0 is now available from Terra Soft as a complete box set 
with 6 CDs, printed Companion to Installation, the completely revised 
"Getting Started with Yellow Dog Linux, Second Edition" book, 60-day 
installation support, and a t-shirt; and for those experienced with the 
installation and use of Yellow Dog Linux, the Geek Edition offers all 6 CDs 
without printed guide, book, or support at a reduced cost. The box set and

The revised "Getting Started" book is for those new to Linux or trying Linux 
on a PowerPC for the first time. The reader is offered insight into a 
UNIX-based operating system followed by a guided introduction to the Linux 
graphical user interface, file management, and key applications and 
utilities. The later half of Getting Started takes the reader into the basics 
of the shell (command line interface), file management, and system 
administration. More information is available online at
