Human Readable: A very readable Linux website

A recent Google search led me back to a site I hadn't seen in quite some time, Darrell Anderson's Human Readable, which despite a somewhat awkward arrangement of links is one of the deepest, most useful (to me anyway) websites I've seen having to do with actual use of Linux on old hardware by mere mortals.

Darrell's focus in the past has been Slackware, and his Slackware Desktop Enhancement Guide should be required reading for every non-super-geeky Slackware user.

And pay particular attention to the 2010 archive for the four-part Beyond Slackware, the seven-part Finding an Operating System for Old Hardware, and the stunningly long and comprehensive 14-part Learning Debian.

One thing I kind of like about Human Readable is that the entries within each section are in chronological order, rather than — as blogging convention dictates — reverse-chronological order.

So what you do is go to the main page, click on a year, and then click on an entry and start reading.
