Customer Reviews & Comments
As the title clearly states, this book is on preparing to take the 70-290 exam as part of the certification for MCSE or MCSA. As such, this is not a book on the operating system itself. Indeed it presumes you already have a pretty good idea about Windows Server 2003 before you start this book. In fact, in the opening of the book the author gives you several recommendations for books that cover the OS and how to use it. This book is on making sure that you pass the test. This book covers the test itself, what you should expect to afind on it, and gives you a very good understanding of those parts of Server 2003 that you should know before going into the testing room. It also includes practice questions and an access key for an online practice test from MeasureUp. This is the second edition of this book. It is up to date to include Service Pack 2 and Release 2.
