Dismiss this book because of one or two spelling mistakes? His loss...The book is well written, fun to read - the author has a sense of humor. This book covers all objectives. I got a 93% thanks to this book and the TopScore A+ test simulation software suite from New Riders. If you are new to Dos/Windows and wish a certification - this book is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful help in getting A+ certified, but..., March 23, 2000

This review is from: A+ Certification DOS/Windows (Accelerated A+ Certification Study Guide) (Paperback)

One thing that kept me from studying for the A+ test was that most books weighed in at around 1000+ pages and were very poorly organized. This book was great in defining what was actually needed to study for the exam and focused just on the operating systems. One thing to point out is that if you take the operating systems portion of the A+ test in June 2000 or later, it will not contain the Win 3.x section and will be adding Linux, Win 98, and NT, instead. If you take the test before June then this is a wonderfully written guide and should be all you need to pass--I passed. I will be getting the companion A+ Certification Core--Accelerated A+ guide to study for that test.
