Yes, if one is spending 3500 ( Rs. 3600 - 100 for CD ) for  simply a
printed manual which is available on CD. The 3500 can buy some excellent
books on Linux. I am sure  more than half the people on this list will
think more than twice before spending on official linux
distribution.     

It is the beauty of linux that it available from Rs.free to Rs.3600 (or
may be more) and choice may be just left with the user.

BTW to answer original question I would suggest 'Linux in 24 Hour' By
Techmedia which comes with RH5.1 CD.

Best Wishes.
