-<para>People who don't want to build an entire Linux system from scratch
-probably don't want to read this book. If you, however, want to learn
-more about what happens behind the scenes, in particular what happens
-between turning on the computer and seeing the command prompt, you may 
-want to read the <quote>From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO</quote>. This
-HOWTO builds a bare system, in a way similar to the one this book

-of a complete system.</para>
+<para>If you do not wish to build your own Linux system from scratch, then
+you probably do not want to read this book. Our goal is to build a complete
+and useable foundation system. If you only want to know what happens while
+your computer boots, then, we recommend the
+<quote>From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO</quote>. The HOWTO builds a bare
+system which is similar to that of this book, but it focuses strictly on
+creating a system capable of booting to a BASH prompt.</para>
 
-<para>To decide whether to read this book or the
-From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO, ask yourself this 
-question: "Is my main objective to get a working Linux system that I'm 
-going to build myself and, along the way learn what every component of 
-a system is for? Or is just the learning part my main objective?" If
-you want to build and learn, read this book. If you just want to learn
-the basics, then the From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO is probably 
-better material to read.</para>
+<para>While you decide which to read, consider your objective. If you wish
+to build a Linux system while learning a bit along the way, then this book
+is probably your best choice. If your objective is strictly educational, and
+you do not have any plans for your finished system, then the
+From-PowerUp-To-Bash-Prompt-HOWTO is probably a better choice.</para>
