well, anything really, just as long as it covers the exam objectives for the 2006 A+ exam...especially Essentials 601 and 602. -

Have you checked out:
http://certification.comptia.org/a/default.aspx
or
http://www.techexams.net/comptia.shtml
I used http://www.ucertify.com the exam prepkits were fairly useful, i was able to print most of it off and study for myself and touch up on what i needed.
I have heard http://www.cbtnuggets.com are a good investment.
If in doubt ask on here, the community here seem to be friendly and supportive -

2 interesting things about the current a+/n+ tests.
They are very different than they used to be. People that took the older tests dont seem to agree, since the objectives have not changed.
Since the objetives remain the same, there will probably be no new relevant material to update.
So we have the Alice Cooper "cant get a job cause I dont have a car, cant get a car cause I dont have a job" loop going on here. Cant get a study material update cause the objectives havent changed, objectives havent changed so we cant update the study materials.
Just prepare the best you can and go wing it. They lowered the passing grade enough to compensate for all the weird stuff they put on there. -

In my experience i would say the majority of questions were nework related, few laptop ones. Not much in the way of hardware. Have a good read up on tcp/ip and iso model etc. I had one q on raid. See how you go

Well, the TechNotes that are on the site still apply, so it's not like there isn't anything for you to review.
What other sources are you bringing to the table? Experience? Books?
Download the Objectives from CompTia, those are 'free'.
Meyers and Sybex both have very good texts available. I'd consider at least one of those if not both.
CBTNuggets has some good material if you are very new into A+ material.
Will there be a revision to the A+ notes prior to your exam? Not sure, when do you think you will be taking your exam?Plantwiz

'i' before 'e' except after 'c'.... weird?
