    Yup, the MS Press book is the way to go. When I studied, I used the academic version, which came with a lab manual, but the difference of the actual text is negligable. There is also a combo pack, which includes the books for all four core exams.

    I was just trying to be funny and informative at the same time... icon_lol.gif I didnt realize that the image was that big. Ironically the OP link goes to the same location I did for the image :)

    Another vote to MSPress. I liked MSPress for 70-291 as well.

    Sounds like an invitation to open photoshop and make the image 50000000000000x5000000000000 and it.

    Would that be better or worse than using a ****?

    Nope, wouldn't work, maximum supported size by photoshop is 300000x300000. And earlier versions only do 30000x30000. Of course you could get fancy if you felt like cutting up the image and scaling those parts and then writing your own little program to splice it all back together. I wonder if any of the current browsers would even attempt to display such an image?

    I think you have a new way to crash internet explorer. Anybody want to check?

    X2 for this book. I used this book and the Exam Cram 2 book. I always like to read two books just in case one book leaves something out.

    When I was doing my Network+ exam....I read through one whole book, and then took some practice exams.....and there were questions that weren't covered in the book. So I went and got a second book, and it covered a lot of material not in the book. Any overlap in the books just reinforces the material. So far, this strategy has worked well for me.

    The Sybex books. I think they were great with lots of useful practicals.
