Summary: The one and only COM/COM+ Reference......
Comment: It is normal for me to use allot of different books for reference, but in terms of the global based COM technologies that number it maximum. For example, I would usually use for reference regarding COM the book by Don Box, Essencial COM. On the other way if I was working with ActiveX I normally had hanging around Understanding ActiveX and OLE, Visual C++ ActiveX COM. And finally if I was working on COM+ usually my I would grab anything I could get my hands on and for DCOM, my favourite pet was the DCOM Unleashed!!
With this set of books all the COM stuff is there and its format between the books is identical (of course), simplifying the search within them after you get the hang of it!!!

Summary: COM/COM+ programmer's essencial
Comment: This is a great set of books that joins all the COM/COM+ stuff you must know in 4 sets of books.
I usually had several different books hanging around regarding all the different COM stuff. For example when regarding to COM I would use the Essential COM or DCOM Unleashed for reference, on the other hand if wanted something about ActiveX/Automation I would use "Understanding ActiveX and OLE" and for COM+ I would grab any COM+ book available. The books are great and although they are available in the MSDN universal subscription, I simply hate reading e-books usually if I'm really interested in them I print them out and consequently almost deplete my printer's toner.
In a final note and must reference that I said 4 books because the COM+ Reference book, is somewhat dispensable for me, since I usually use MSDN.

Summary: A nice set to have
Comment: If you have an MSDN subscription, you get these books for free electronically. But sometimes you don't want to sit in front of a monitor for hours, reading skinny black text off a bright white screen. Frankly, that sucks.
When you start to specialize in a technology like COM+, I think a set like this is essential. In this case the set is very handy and even gives some nice overviews of COM+ in the Windows DNA world.
With this book you get an MSDN Library snapshot DVD (from July 2000) and a $200 rebate on a MSDN Universal subscription. Unfortunately that expired March 31 2001 :( so you should know that before buying this set. Even so, I think this is a great set and it is not simply a "function list" like most sets but is actually a great learning tool.
