Rating: 4
Summary: Complete with very useful chapters
Comment: I have read and reused this book for over 10 months. I found the chapters on using the Performance Monitor for clearing performance bottlenecks very informative and useful.

I actually changed how I detect problems based on information outlined in this book.

Rating: 2
Summary: Complete, technical, and sloppy
Comment: Although this book is certainly comprehensive, the fact that it was written by several people is readily apparent. It is plagued with technical inaccuracies every few pages, and has many redundant sections. With that said it is also the most thorough book on the subject, and provides a ton of useful information. The CD-ROM a glorified coaster, as all of its utilities are antiquated versions. Its discussion on security is weak, and I recommend Guide to Windows NT Security (Charles Rutstein ISBN 0-07-057833-8) for workstation based security.

Rating: 5
Summary: Authoritative, businesslike, firstclass quality reading!
Comment: Jim Boyce and his team in this book have been able to to something that few technical writers can - combine excellent full-strength data with almost conversation-like and compelling readibility. It's hard to describe a technical book as unputdownable, but this one is. I had already gone through two manuals - in utter frustration - on Windows NT when I bought this manual.

The strengths of the book are clear: all the information you'll need to handle NT is there, from installation to networking (all the many and various protocols, etc), to disc management, discussion on the merits and demerits of the many options that NT offers, messing with the Registry, tweaking the system, security ....its all there, in a lucid enjoyable style. The one teeny criticism of the manual that I have in fact has nothing to do with the manual itself. The edition I have was printed in 1996, and is just barely beginning to show its age. However with NT 5 due out soon there is probably l! ittle more to add to NT 4.

All in all, a super book that is worth its weight in gold.
