Title: Microsoft(r) Windows(r) 2000 Professional Expert Companion by Carl Siechert, Craig Stinson ISBN: 0-7356-0855-5 Publisher: Microsoft Press Pub. Date: 12 April, 2000 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $39.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.67 (6 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Good, but old and incomplete
Comment: Well-written and excellent for novices. However whole topics are either skipped over hastily (e.g. troubleshooting) or omitted altogether (e.g. multimedia support). A bit out-of-date, considering it covers the original release, prior to all Service Packs. Even MS's support site offers more in-depth info on variety of issues.
Still, a handy desktop reference. Those who want to dive in deep may want to look elsewhere.
Rating: 5
Summary: 800 Pages of Useful, Hard-to-Find Information
Comment: Finally, a book for users like me! I am an experienced computer user with a deep background in many operating systems including Unix. I want consise information to help me really understand Windows 2000 as an expert user. It is not hard to find such books for Unix, probably because you pretty much have to be an expert to use Unix. Most Windows books, on the other hand, seem to be addressed to non-computer people.
I use this book regularly to look things up, but I've also enjoyed just browsing around discovering interesting things about Windows 2000. Actually, the book has given me a whole new appreciation of the operating system.

Summary: A Complete and Easy to read Reference
Comment: I am an MCSE, MCT, etc etc and like others found answers in a few minutes to questions I have had for months. This is a GREAT book! The author states it is not meant to be read cover to cover, but instead to be used to research a particular issue. It certianly does what he intended very well, but I for one will read it through.
The book takes a systematic approach to Windows 2000 issues and covers each topic in a clear to the point manner that is amazingly easy to read. It is complete enough for the seasoned network admin, but easy enough to follow for the entry level support tech. However, I would not reccomend it for the regular Windows user due to the technical nature of the topics covered.
I just ordered a copy for everyone on my support staff. You will want to do the same.
