Well presented and understood, without any background in computer education it takes a lot from skilled lectures to let me understand the concepts and overall course.

Looking forward for next course.

It was an awesome course learnt operating systems, file systems, virtual machines and virtualization.

I would like to express my gratitude for the creation of this wonderful course. However, I did notice some issues with blurry images in certain slides and low audio quality in some of the videos. It would be greatly appreciated if these issues could be addressed for future learners.

Es bastante interesante los conceptos que se manejan, además de que te adentras un poco a los demás sistemas operativos, en especial Linux que te muestran un poco de los comandos básicos que serán demasiado útiles para seguir en este camino de aprendizaje

I really like all the courses in the Cyber Security Analist program. Lots of useful information and examples. But, the pictures are often of poor quality and you have to find them in Google to save and make a note.
