Review

If you're looking to pass the exam and get a good reference work in the bargain, this is the route to take. -- Cliff Adams, Programmer Analyst, Directions Research, Inc.

The book's organization, overall conciseness, and to-the-point coverage of configuration issues make it an added value to anyone preparing for Exam 70-215. -- John Griffin, Senior Web Developer, Iomega Corp.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book packed with hands-on, August 29, 2000
This review is from: MCSE Training Guide (70-215): Installing, Configuring, and Administering Windows 2000 Server (Hardcover)
You cannot say much bad things about the book. The book is packed with screenshots of Windows 2000 and I can read the book without turning on the computer at all. Also, the author has shown clearly the steps in performing an action and a screenshot and explanation for each step. The exam questions in the book are quite good and they summarise the important points that you should have learnt in a chapter. I have not taken the real exam yet, so I cannot tell whether the questions are up to par like the real exam.

All in all, I am a happy customer. This time NewRiders has done a good job. Watch out, Sybex.

3.0 out of 5 stars Did ANYONE proof read this?, March 3, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: MCSE Training Guide (70-215): Installing, Configuring, and Administering Windows 2000 Server (Hardcover)
This book is great if you're new to Windows 2000 and can't sit in front of a Win2k machine to learn. The book is packed with screen shots. I wouldn't reccommend using this book as a primary source of information though. The book is littered with typos, conflicting information and incorrect exam answers. The answer keys usually match up while the description for the correct answer does not.

The book is very superficial. Use this book only if you need to familiarize yourself with Windows 2000. However, absolutely do *NOT* rely solely on this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book lacks substance, March 30, 2002
By 
Jeanpaul Cruze (Leesburg, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MCSE Training Guide (70-215): Installing, Configuring, and Administering Windows 2000 Server (Hardcover)
This book needs a new revision. The content and format are OK but I don't think they did a good job of matching up with the exam requirements. This book will not be your only resource if you are to pass this exam the first time. Also remember that the quetions in the bok are not representative of the exam. The probem is that there are not a lot of great resources for this exam but you should consider a different one because this one will leave a lot of unanswered questions.
