Summary: Horrible book if you want to learn Exchange 2000
Comment: I bought this book to get me up to speed with Exchange 2000 and it is a horrible buy. The author jumps all over the map with concepts and ideas. He does not define concepts or definitions clearly (or at all) and does not build upon them very well. Buy the Administrator's Companion by Microsoft Press. It is a better purchase if you want to use it as a learning guide for your MCSE.

Summary: Very Good Study Guide
Comment: I thought was a very good Training Kit for the 224 exam. One of the included CDs had .avi's showing all Practice Exercise's that were very usefully incase you dont have access to test equipment. The book was well written and I did not found any blatant errors. For my test prep, I used this and the Exchange 2000 Resource Kit. The training kit provided a great overall coverage and example exercises. The Resource Kit then was able to pound the deeper more technical aspects into my brain.
Again I will go back to the exercises and .avi's. I personally dont have a cluster server to test on, but the training guide steps you through the install and configure process, while you watch it on video. The book also includes an eval copy of Exchange 2000 Enterprise and Outlook 2000

Summary: A bit of overkill but still a good book to have around.
Comment: Working on the transition to Exchange 2000 is a project that I am involved with. I am using the Resource Kit for a lot of planning and deployment ideas. I think that with book as a compliment to this book I will be able to pass the exam.
I found that there are over 80 labs in the book and coupled with the 120 day evaluation of the software this make it easier to process the concepts. What I found was that unlike some of the other Microsoft Press books, this one does not seems to flow as well from topic to topic.
Also being new to the Exchange 2000 Arena, I also thought this book may have been written to those with a little more experience. Although I did like the deployment, public folders and especially the Outlook Web Access section, since they apply more to what I am working on.
Overall I think this book can be a handy and useful tool if it was scaled down to every technical level.
