Getting Started with Ubuntu 12.04

Abstract

Getting Started with Ubuntu 12.04 is not intended to be a comprehensive Ubuntu instruction manual. It is more like a quick-start guide that will get you doing the things you need to do with your computer quickly and easily, without getting bogged down with technical details. As with prior versions, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS incorporates many new features, including enhancements to the Unity shell and HUD. More about the Unity shell and what it means, HUD is an abbreviation for heads-up display. For more detailed information on using Unity and the Ubuntu desk-top, see the “Ubuntu Desktop Guide"
