Just in case there are some other total MySQL newbies like me on this list...
That book "MySQL + mSQL" on O'Reilley books that was just released this month,
is NOT for dummies.
It doesn't have any "1-2-3 How to get started with MySQL on Linux" examples.
It seems to be more of a reference manual for intermediate level people.
Especially written towards people who know other datbase languages and want to
know how MySQL compares to those.
SO - back to DevShed I go, to learn this thing from scratch...
