If you're not worried about he exam, just pick the book that you feel will suit you best R2 or non-R2. I haven't taken an MS exam since MCSE2000, and I'm getting along configuring wk3 and wk8 when I have to.

2000 to 2008 are really similar, unless you're talking specifics (which are important in an exam situation)
