This review is from: MCSE Windows 2000 Server Lab Manual (Paperback)

Book is an excellent tool to help exercise the skills needed for your 2000 Server exam. Was looking for lab exercises that I could use in my home practice lab and this book was well thought out, nicely written, and done so in a matter that helps bridge the "real world" with the functionality. Will buy the 2000 Pro book next.
