Summary: Save trees and readers, please.
Review: All knowledge this book offers is well hidden behind all those jokes and "zen" things. It's a good book for people who want to train how to distinguish between useful and useless information. Very low information/page ratio.

Summary: The Worst Technical Manual I Have Seen To Date
Review: Just finished a LAN Class, where I had to buy books on NT, Cisco, MS-DOS and Novell. Got through all the other books with no problem. Then my instructor saved the best (worst) for last. I get nauseated trying to learn anything from the text in this book. I can stand to read about two pages in a row at any given time and then I have to close it and take a break. Today is my last day of class and I haven't finished this book yet and don't believe I will. The only good thing about it is that it is very thick and dense and will make a nice backstop when I go to the pistol range and shoot it full of holes.

Summary: So full of fluff, it takes work to wade through it!
Review: Like many other reviewers here, I found all the irrelevant junk Mr Clarke filled his pages with to be distracting and irritating. The only reason I bought it was that I picked it up... at a discount book store. I still think I wasted my money. And I should have known better because his CNA Study Guide is just as bad. The cover says it comes with THE Clarke Test (emphasis mine) and the text in the book describes the full version. But the software you get is actually nothing more than a demo. You have to read the fine print hidden around the edge of the CD to know this before purchasing. I think this book is a waste of time and a rip-off. I would demand my money back from Mr. Clarke himself if I thought I could get it. Whatever you do, never buy any books by this man.

Summary: It *could've* been a good book...but it's not.
Review: There are two types of CNE students in this world: Those that love this book and those that loathe it. I was severely disappointed to find that, although the cover of the book tells you that the official Novell courses are inside, they're not in any specific order! I don't know about the rest of you, but I take one test at a time...and that's how I'd like to study for them. There's an index at the back that tells you which pages to read to follow Novell's cirriculum for a specific course, but it's 10 pages here, 5 pages there, 2 or 3 pages here, 30 pages there...on and on and the the material may span 1000 pages or more. I don't understand the thinking when putting this book together. I bought it at another store and returned it. My time is too valuable than to subject myself to this.
