Summary: Another Great Book!
Comment: 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!

Summary: A nice read, but...
Comment: I found this book easy to read, but lacking in depth, and full of glaring technical errors.
It's quite apparent that it was compiled on the strength of an early Beta, because SIMPLE things such as command-line switches to programs (e.g. Update.exe /SLIP, WinNT32.exe /I) are incorrect, while in other areas the authors are simply wrong in the statements they make (e.g. need to be a domain admin to add a machine to the domain - yes, this is the default, but even in NT4 this could be delegated, OR confusion sometimes between recommended and required minimum hardware specs).
The book furthermore is missing or skims over important areas, and does not pay enough attention to troubleshooting more complex scenarios.
It was nice to have the full text on CD, but the demo movies on it were pitched at 5 year olds and therefore quite useless.
So in short, I did not have much confidence in this book. However I thankfully had the sense to do a lot of reading from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit documentation and Technet CD otherwise I certainly would not have passed the exam.

Summary: Great Study guide!!
Comment: I have to say this book covers the 70-210 exam better than the Sybex version. I used both to pass my exam with flying colours but i found this book easier to read and covered the material more indepth. I fully recommend it to anyone who wants to pass the Windows 2000 Pro exam. Good luck to your journey to MCSE land.
