Thus far, the information is good; however the instructor didn't provide any information pertaining to adding a GUI to the linux OS. I'm only able to follow along because I already have a rudimentary understanding of the directory structure. It would've been nice if the original VM was setup to have the same GUI as what's being used in the tutorials.

I think overall if you want to learn the basics of Linux it was a great course. It gave a basic understanding of the Linux Operating System and it's 50+ distributions, well done.

Content could do with updating regarding most recent versions of VirtualBox and CentOS. Other than that it's good introduction to Linux.
