I really enjoyed learning Linux and practicing the commands as I learned. I was familiar with MYSQL and I was able to get a quick review of the commands performed in them and syntax.

I liked the labs. Did not like the optional project assignments. Would have like to seen a Linux and SQL 'cheat sheet' of commands and syntax for download instead of a glossary.
