Summary: Good for complete beginners - Bad for anyone with experience
Comment: A very light and fluffy book.
3/4s of the book is filler. We don't need another book with a chapter on the OSI model, and certainly don't need this much detail on installation and configuration - it's not that hard. Most of the book illustrates and describes rather then explaining why. Certainly there is little attention paid OS X's UNIX roots (expecially OS X Server).
The last few chapters are useful if you are heavily invested in using NetBoot or Mac Manager. But even in these chapters there more attention paid to screenshots and descriptions of all the checkboxes then any serious advice or advances discussion.

Summary: not useful anymore
Comment: While this book seemed very appealing for someone who is new to Mac OS X server and its Linux underpinnings, it is almost worthless at this point in time since it has not been updated to include the major changes that have been made in the past couple years. Save your money and visit online resources; they are much more valuable.
