Summary: Great exam coverage, but contains errors
Review: This book has some strong positive features, but also some negatives. On the positive, it covers the exam material quite well, and is easy to read. There's also questions at the end of each chapter to test your knowledge. As mentioned in previous reviews, the CD is great, with some tutorials and a sample exam (I don't know how close it is to the actual test.)For the negatives, the book contains some glaring errors. For example, in chapter 3 the author doesn't understand how Sysprep.exe works. It is NOT a cloning tool in itself, but instead it PREPARES the system for a third-party cloning tool. It does NOT create images, as listed on page 138. In chapter two there are some minor errors with the parameters for winnt.exe and update.exe (-s is a correct option for update.exe, but I don't think /slip is correct.) In summary, the exam coverage is great, but beware of errors!

Summary: Good study guide for the money.
Review: This book helped me pass the 70-210 exam. It covered all aspects of the exam and actually got more detailed than necessary in some areas. The CD that came with the book had a good standard practice exam, the adaptive test was kind of weak in that it didn't go into which answers were right and wrong let alone why.

Summary: Another Great Book!
Review: This is another great book by the Shinder's and the Syngress team. It covers every objective that is tested on the Microsoft Professional exam, and prepares aspiring 2000 MCSE students for their first test very well. I read the book and passed the exam without any problem at all. I didn't need to read any other books, but I did do all of the labs and exercises at home a few times before attempting the exam. Tom and Deb Shinder have written many, many books on the Windows 2000 OS and all have been superb. I would recommend this book to MCSE's who are preparing for the Professional exam, educators who teach MCSE classes, and IT professionals who are planning an upgrade or will need to support these machines as clients. Good Job!
