Summary: This book was money well spent
Comment: I passed 70-228 on my first attempt, using this book in conjunction with Transcender and Books Online as my primary study resources.
You won't get all the information you need to pass the real test from this book, but that is not its intent. It works well when used for what it is marketed as, which is a "cram" resource to supplement a sound knowledge of SQL Server 2000 administration. Especially useful for me were the practice questions, the practice test at the end, and the screenshots of Enterprise Manager dialogs. Good to have in the hours immediately before the test!
The contents have a few errors, including referring to the model database as "modal" throughout the book, but that doesn't detract too much from the overall utility of the book.
All in all, a good investment, considering the cost of each attempt on the real test.

Summary: Disappointing...
Comment: No, no, no.. This book is a waste of time. It gives an IN DEPTH step by step, excrutiatingly detailed how-to examples on using the installation wizard, and then glosses over the more important details that actually appear on the exam (like the C2 auditing and analyzing the SQL 2000 performance counters). If you're familiar at all with the software, this book has little or nothing to offer you in terms of actually test preparation. Microsoft assumes everybody taking the certification exams already knows when to click the next button.. Don't waste your time or money on this. The Dummies book is much better.

Summary: Did the job!
Comment: This book gave me the extra pieces of information I needed to pass the exam. SQL 2000 ROCKS!
