Over the years I have collected on a 64Gb USB Thumb-drive, many more than 1850 videos, that I believe are important for those that are new to Linux. They mostly cover computers, open source, Linux, networking and security.
I don't totally agree fully with the conclusions, content, interpretations or viewpoints presented within each and every one of them; but, I want to start sharing the information here. More to come.
Below are listed some of the videos that are suggested for Newcomers to Linux. Eventually I will be listing more individual selections. This is a work in progress, and only recently started.
