hi peeps!

had you guys used >>>> MCSA/MCSE: Windows Server 2003 Network Simulator™ (70-290, 70-291, 70-293, 70-294) ???

if there's anyone in here who knows how good or bad this software is, please give me some insights...

thank you!!!

I can imagine why one would want a Cisco simulator, but for Microsoft exams you should use Virtual PC or VMware, or a real lab, but at least use the real software.

sybex's network simulator is about teaching the test, not the technologies.

So I recommend spending your money on some extra RAM (if needed) and a license of Virtual PC or VMware, or an extra computer even, instead.

I have to agree with Johan. It is geared towards passing a test, and even then it is not very useful (IMO). Nothing beats having your own lab that you can play on and really get your hands dirty with the technologies. Best way to learn I think.
