There are one or two that mention Linux.
If my memory (never good, often faulty) serves me right, there was a "Mac-Haters"
book that came out before this that was oriented toward the fact that everything
was a GUI, and it was all proprietary and you could not do "interesting things" with
the operating system.  The Unix-Hater's book was a "follow on".
I find it interesting that there never seemed to be a "Windows-Hater Handbook", but
then, why state the obvious?
