Good buy 13 July 2010
By Kirsty
Format:Paperback
I bought this book after reading Mike Meyer's book on the same subject. I needed something that was a little more concise and didn't discuss topics that weren't necessarily in the exam. So I've bought this book, which is more straight-up and a little more formal than Mike Meyers. I've only just started reading it following the exam change from 601 to 701. I find it very easy to understand, and it explains what is needed in a straight forward way.

What I have found to be a drawback is that the book does not detail the speeds for the processors. This is detailed in all other material that I have for the exams, and it does make me wonder how much else is going to be excluded. It isn't a big issue for me, as I have other materials to draw from, but if you were thinking of buying this book, I would recommend having a back up as well just so you're covering all areas!

A mixed opinion 18 July 2010
By Spudlet
Format:Paperback
Having read Mike Meyer's book previously, I bought this one for up-to-date information for the new Comptia A+ exams. The book itself is clearly written and is an easy studyguide to read. However, after looking through my other study notes, I realised that there is some important information that is lacking in some sections of the book. Therefore, if you were to buy this book I would definitely recommend you use it in conjunction with a more reliable source of information so that you know that you are covering all areas sufficiently for the exams.

I bought this book but didn't end up using it much instead I opted for Mike Meyers passport A+ book 4th edition.I also watched video training courses which were excellent. I passed my A+ 2 months ago with scores of 856 and 848 so clearly these alternatives helped. The main problems I found with the Sybex offering were the errors such as for example the laser printing process. I did write to the editor at Sybex detailing that error and some others, and he emailed me back stating that the authors would be in contact with me, but I never heard back from them.
The book is OK but I would not recommend it if you are serious about gaining a good understanding of the A+ topics and you have the intention of passing it with high scores.
