If you don't know about it, don't ask. Go read for yourself. Go to
www.google.com and type in NEWBIE HACKING.
Linux is easy to do stuff with, I mean its so much simpler than windows, everything is command based, (actually windows is too, but linux is more basic) and Dos? You are going to have a hard time doing anything sweet with it, I mean, you could format somebodies computer with it. If your wanting to hack, go dl vb, and learn to write your programs, then get into dos, all dos is used for is programs/running them.
IBooks are gay, I Don't know anything about them except they are apple... lol
