Any mid-range desktop or laptop would be suitable for use with Linux and have enough power for web design. Dells, Acers, and ASUS laptops tend to have high compatibility with Linux (I would not get an ASUS Eee PC for web design, as it is slow and has a low resolution).
How are the shell and kernel used in Linux?
The shell is used to allow the user to interface with the operating system and run their applications. BASH is a shell, as is GNOME (Often referred to as a "graphical shell.").
The kernel, on the other hand, is the core of the operating system. It manages the hardware, resources, and processes running on the sysem.

Dependency hell refers to the practice of reusing code from various sources to keep programmers from having to "reinvent the wheel" for every application they write.

How do you access the C drive from a Linux terminal?
Linux does not identify drives or partitions with letters. To Windows, "C:" is the partition that the running version of Windows is currently installed on, regardless of how many partitions are on the disk. Linux identifies partitions based on the order they are placed on the disk. For instance, the second partition on the first hard drive would be /dev/sda2 or /dev/hda2.
In order to access a Windows partition,you will need to identify what partition it is actually on. A quick way to do this is to run
cfdisk /dev/sda
or cfdisk with whatever hard drive it is on if you have more than one. A Windows partition will have the type of either NTFS or FAT32. To mount it, create a directory (such as /mnt/windows), and use the command
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/windows
substituting of course the correct partition.
What are the applications and devices that Linux can support?
