Got an 892. Although I have 10 years experience this was my first MS exam. It was definitely different and a little harder than I had expected a client exam to be.

I used the MS Press Training Kit and Transcender practice test but have been using Windows 7 since first day of public beta.
Certs: VCP4, MCTS: Windows 7, Network+, A+

    I'm attending the VMware vSphere course this week (requirement for VCP) so I'll probably take the VCP4 exam next week. Then on to 70-640 and the rest of MCITP: EA.

    I wish my employer would cough up the fee for vSphere class, lol.

    I completely lucked out. I was complaining (loudly) that it's total BS that you're REQUIRED to cough up $3000 for a course before you can test for VCP because it completely squeezes out SMB admins. Then, a few days later I get a phone call from a VMware education rep stating that our company has 30 education credits that are about to expire. Talk about feeling stupid...

    That's better than a poke in the eye. I'd love to be able to attend. Make sure you share your experience.
