Summary: Great book, but you need more to pass !
Comment: It took me close to just one month to teach myself the core of Windows 2000 Professional with LITTLE knowledge of the proprietary Microsoft OS. I started with basic Windows knowledge, lacking knowledge of Group Policy Objects, NTFS permissions, MMC, RIS, etc. Essentially speaking, I was your typical daily Win9x user.
To my surprise, I managed to score 860 / 1000 on the actual 70-210 exam taken at a Prometric exam center USING THIS BOOK ALONE (even though I had the Windows 2000 Professional MCSE Training Kit book by MS Press). The book has its good and bad points.
Good points
- 300 some odd pages
- Straight and to the point; it'll get you up and operating Win2k instantly
- Easy read (as oppose to the Win2k Pro MCSE TK by MS Press)
Bad points
- Doesn't elaborate with greater details on some of the more important concepts (i.e. RIS, network protocols, Windows registry, printer administrations, etc.)
- Unclear / ambiguous explanation on certain concepts (i.e. Group Policy Objects, software assignment / publishing, etc.)
I had to go back and refer to the MCSE Training Kit on Win2k Professional to review the areas that were -not- covered (or not thouroughly covered) in the Exam Cram.
I recommend this book as a -SUPPLEMENTARY- guide. To get the most out of Windows 2000, I suggest reading the Windows 2000 Professional MCSE Training Kit by Microsoft Press (it's about 600 some odd pages and a boring read); but you will not regret it, especially if you want to learn the ins and outs of Windows 2000 Professional [especially important in the workplace] !

Summary: Clear, Concise, Congratulations!
Comment: I spent about two weeks preparing for the 70-210 exam using this book, and I was quite surprised by the score I was able to get. A lot of the questions on the actual exam were similar to the points made in this book. This is a great guide book. I suggest you buy and start using Windows 2000 Professional if you haven't done so already before buying this book - although the book explains things well it alone will not make you pass the exam (you have to play with the actual operating system!!) I love this book and the authors behind it. Thank you Dan, Dan, Todd, and Laurie!

Summary: good supplement to the exam Prep
Comment: I used both the exam prep and the exam cram to pass the MCSE 70-210 exam yesterday. I found both books very useful. Although no book ever gives you 100% of the info you need to pass the exam. The exam cram is very helpful. I always find the exam "Alerts" sections very helpful in the exam cram books and this book was no exception. after reading the exam prep this book was really helpful in allowing me to focus on areas that I still had some trouble with. I also recommend another source, other than the exam cram/prep for testing software. So you get an idea of the sorts of questions you'll be asked on the real exam.
