Rating:  Summary: I expected more Review: The book seems like it was rushed to the presses, as it is definitely lacking in necessary material for the exams. I'm very disappointed with this book.
Rating:  Summary: Could Be Better Review: The only reason I gave this book 3 stars is because, as nearly as I can tell, everything that I ran into on the test was mentioned in this book. I think IE configuration, troubleshooting portable computer configuration, and Windows XP Stop errors were extremely lacking. As is becoming more and more typical, this book had to many pages, and not enough of the right information. As a side note, I did pass the exam on the first try, but I credit that more to real world experience than to this book.
Rating:  Summary: CD contents lacking, text not that great Review: The only reason I used to chose MS Press over Sybex in the past was the limited version of Win2k they included. Now that they don't include it, I won't be going with them, as I've never been thrilled about the actual books.
Rating:  Summary: Beware Review: There is no software in this kit. Without installation software the kit is worthless.
Rating:  Summary: The most stupid "study guide" that I've ever seen. Review: This book is far away for being a complete study guide for 70-270 exam preparation. Many questions, that you'll see on the actual exam, do not covered in this book at all. If you are familiar with Win XP, you'll find this book totally useless. If you're newbie to WinXP, you'll see the lack of explanations in many important topics. I'm totally disappointed with Microsoft Press. If you want to pass the exam, choose Sybex.
Rating:  Summary: Very insufficient...................... Review: This book is highly insufficient for passing MCSE. There are no practice tests....book written just to give u a brief overview. Hardly deals with the scenario based questions that the original exam has.... Don't waste your bucks on this one...
Rating:  Summary: This book is a POS!! Review: This Book is the biggest POS I have ever had for a MCSE book. The cd is such a joke the testing software sucks so bad it does not even test you chapter by chapter. I went and took the 70-270 test and I was not ready for it at all. I went out and bought the sybex 70-270 book and its safe to say I will be so ready for the test now. The software on the sybex book lets you test yourself chapter by chapter and overall the book it set up much better.
Rating:  Summary: NO Trail software Review: Without the trial software we are all inconvenienced by having to buy the product to test it, or to ask Microsoft for the product and wait close to eternity for it. Why not include a trial version of the product in the kit, and leave out the digital version of the book? That would be truly helpful!
