Don't wait until the night before to study for the Microsoft Certified Professional Exam for Windows 95. As the
Windows 95 Exam Guide demonstrates, the test covers all aspects of Microsoft's popular operating system from the rudiments of installation to using Windows 95 clients on a server-based network. The book, which is an official study guide, offers a crash course on all of these subjects, complete with lab exercises and practice tests. It is a little leaner than other Windows 95 study guides but the added resources in the appendix are valuable.
Chapter subjects include threads and procedures, printers, communications, an overview of the Windows 95 architecture, and details on using Windows 95 with NetWare and NT servers. In addition, there is a full glossary, information on certification, a suggested reading list, and a listing of useful Internet resources.
You don't need to take the test to benefit from the study guide. There is enough here to teach any system administrator or adept Windows user a thing or two. This exam guide also makes for a fine Windows 95 reference book. Icons indicating notes, tips, and key concepts allow users to quickly reference material. Each chapter is filled with screen shots, examples, and diagrams for clarification. The included CD-ROM contains an initial exam to assess your skills, more chapter questions, and a practice exam.
