Summary: Good book, but needs an E-Book upgrade
Comment: In the past, I have gone to Sybex for all my certification needs. I decided to try the Microsoft Press books this time for 2 reasons. First, it is the only certification guide for XP Pro (so far) and second, the CD had the E-Book version. I was excited for the E-Book. It was going to give me a reason to purchase that new Pocket PC that I wanted. When the book came I started looking on the CD for the lit file (for the Microsoft Reader), but found out the book is nothing more than a Help file. Come on Microsoft, support your own E-Book format! There are plenty of IT professionals out there with Pocket PC's who would love to be able to carry this book on their PDA.
As for the content of the book, so far it seems well written. I like how each chapter is broken into lessons. This give me a good stoping point in the middle of a chapter so I can get on my computer and pratice what I have just learned.

Summary: Could Be Better
Comment: The only reason I gave this book 3 stars is because, as nearly as I can tell, everything that I ran into on the test was mentioned in this book. I think IE configuration, troubleshooting portable computer configuration, and Windows XP Stop errors were extremely lacking. As is becoming more and more typical, this book had to many pages, and not enough of the right information.
As a side note, I did pass the exam on the first try, but I credit that more to real world experience than to this book.

Summary: This book is a POS!!
Comment: This Book is the biggest POS I have ever had for a MCSE book. The cd is such a joke the testing software sucks so bad it does not even test you chapter by chapter. I went and took the 70-270 test and I was not ready for it at all. I went out and bought the sybex 70-270 book and its safe to say I will be so ready for the test now. The software on the sybex book lets you test yourself chapter by chapter and overall the book it set up much better.
