Windows 2000 Server for Dummies
£10.26
delivers what it promises - The dummies range has saved many an it professional from drowning when your boss decides to throw you in the deep end: I think we should upgrade to windows 2000 server...make it happen! If this has happened to you then have no fear, this book WILL help you. Clearly written with someone who needs answers NOW! No guff or pages and pages extolling how brilliant win2k server is, just the facts with lots of pictures for easy navigation. It certainly helped me.
Valuable background and practical information - The book (and accompanying software) covers the 70-215 syllabus with a specific view to passing the exam.However, you will find that having attained every bit of knowledge contained therein, you will still not pass this exam.The book takes a relatively easy to understand, matter of fact approach which the novice will appreciate. I consider the book to be a valuable source of basic, background information and a useful reference point from a practical perspective.The many practice exam questions contained are a bonus though please don t be fooled by thinking that the questions in the real exam will be similar - they re not! I found that the exam included material way beyond the scope of this book and was based mainly on obscure scenarios.In conclusion, I would say that you get quite a lot of useful brain fodder for your money, especially since more expensive alternatives will still, in my experience, leave you a distance from a pass-mark. Further, more exam-focused study material is definitely required if you are to pass 70-215.Good luck!
