Newbie-Friendly Post-Installation Ubuntu Usability Setup Guide
http://www.howtoforge.com/newbie-friendly-post-installation-...
This tutorial is designed for new Linux users that are familiar with Microsoft Windows. The goal is to address some of the most common issues that these people face. (Namely, media codecs, and general terminology.) I tried to write it as someone might explain it vocally; I attempted to add humor in an effort to keep it interesting, although I make no guarantees that it is actually funny.

How To Limit CPU Usage Of A Process With cpulimit (Debian/Ubuntu)
http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-limit-cpu-usage-of-a-proces...
This tutorial shows how you can limit the CPU usage of a process with the tool cpulimit on Debian/Ubuntu. cpulimit is a simple program that attempts to limit the CPU usage of a process (expressed in percentage, not in cpu time). This is useful to control batch jobs, when you don't want them to eat too much CPU. It does not act on the nice value or other scheduling priority stuff, but on the real CPU usage. Also, it is able to adapt itself to the overall system load, dynamically and quickly.
