Passed A+ Hardware

The test was pretty easy. I scored a 686 and the test only took me about 20 minutes to complete. Decent amount of network-related questions (about 10-15), a few on USB, a few on SCSI, a couple on printers, and a few on different types of memory (ram & cache), esd and wrist strap questions, a good amount of troubleshooting, and the rest general knowledge. They went over CMOS too. There weren't alot of really hard questions though, maybe 10 of them.

The majority of the questions felt like they were just giving the cert away though. The reset required some experience or decent amount of studying though.

I used the Sybex A+ book, A+ for Dummies, and the TechNotes on this site.

OS is next.
