Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

What does it do when I "subscribe to this thread"?
I'm hoping that the purpose is to make it easier for me to keep track of threads I'm currently commenting on (instead of using little scraps of paper :) ). Does it server any other purpose?
So far as I can tell, I tried subscribing to a number of threads, and only *one* shows up listed in my "User CP".
[Edit: I had previously subscribed to a number of different threads (some possibly a month or two old) and they did not show up in my User CP. I just subscribed to *this* thread and it *does* show up, along with one other one I just subscribed to.]
