4.0 out of 5 stars Really Helpful Book!, March 24, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Windows 2000 Server in 24 Hours (Teach Yourself -- Hours) (Paperback)

I purchased this book after my company asked me about the pros and cons of upgrading our small company to Windows 2000. The examples in the book were very helpful and the writing was very clear. The book is very readable, and doesn't put you to sleep! Since the book is made for people (like me) who need a crash course in the topic, the book obviously can't delve into all the minutia of W2K. But it covered a whole lot and gave me much more information than I thought I'd get. It's a great beginner to intermediate-level book on the topic, and I definitely recommend it!

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Windows 2000 Server in 24 Hours (Paperback)

I read the reviews for "SAMS Teach yourself Windows 2000 server in 21 days" after I had already bought this one. I'm glad I went with this choice, as the material is updated and makes the needed comparisons between W2K server and Windows NT server. Jeremy Moskowitz(Sosinsky only writes 5 chapters) outlines all the important features and processes using easy to follow real-world examples. Myself being an NT guru, but not knowing a thing about 2000, found the comparisons especially helpful. If you need a book to read over the weekend to go start setting up a W2K network on Monday, this is the book. Loads of information, easy to follow.
