Difference between current exams and exams from 1999?

I find myself needing to retake the A+ for WGU. As a sanity check to my overconfidence, what kind of differences are there between the old exams and new? If I've been in the industry for the last 17 years am I going to see any surprises? Thanks!

I'd at least download the latest CompTIA A+ exam objectives/outline and maybe find a good A+ study guide (check amazon) and look at the table of contents and using those make a list of anything that you not confident in and go some googling/youtubing.

I haven't taken the A+ exam so can't comment as to how much it may have changed.

Differences? I'm hoping they are nothing alike! 17 years...

LOL, nice. You mean I don't need to know the I/O address and IRQs for COM and LPT ports anymore?
