Networking Essentials Plus

Rating:
Summary: Network Essentials Plus is a PLUS
Review: I have been teaching Microsoft products for eight years and MSPRESS is now making my job easier with this new line of ALS books. This book, along with all of the books in the ALS series, is written so the material is clear and fully understandable. The lab exercises are fantastic and allow the reader to follow the lab keystroke by keystroke, removing all the guess work. I give this book 4 stars and two thumbs up.

Rating:
Summary: Decent information but not a Network + study guide.
Review: I'm not exactly sure what this book is intended for. I don't want to give the wrong impression. The material covered is (for the most part) accurate and somewhat useful but other portions of the book are outdated. As a CompTIA Network + exam study guide the book is just about worthless! The book was required text for a college class I took. I would not recommend this book to anyone interested in passing the network + exam. If it wasn't for a great study guide I found on the Internet and a bunch of practice tests I wouldn't have passed.
