UNIX
The one true Operating System for some people. Definetly not me, even though I use Linux and the BSD-derived Mac OS X every day.
Resources:Rosetta Stone - common CLI commands for most UNIX variants.
The UNIX Wars (by Eric S. Raymond, heavily biased, of course)
The Art of UNIX Programming (also by him, a pretty good read)
In The Beginning... (the Bell Labs version)
Memorable Quotes from alt.sysadmin.recovery (back when Usenet was useful).
The Unix Haters' Handbook (for balance - whatever you think, UNIX is most certainly not perfect).
