The book was informative. It offers easy readability, and a well structured format. However, it contains numerous typos, errors, and contradictions which should not be tolerated in a book of this sort. The authors & editors really should have proof-read this book before publishing. However, it is useful when read in conjunction with MCSE Windows 98 for Dummies. One supports the other, for the most part. This book, however, is definately not all it's cracked up to be. Study with other books and aids to ensure you pass the test.
