Book Reccommendation?

GawdGawd Member Posts: 132
Can anyone recommend any books for the CCNA exam? We are Provided with a Learning Guide and CCNA TestOut Lab Sims at my School. But I dont think that will be enough. So I would like a good book to go along with it. Ive been thinking about: CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate Study Guide 4th Edition (640-801) by Todd Lammle. Does anyone have anything to say about this book or know of any other good books?

Thanks,

Gawd

    ;) Well You've sold me on the Todd Lammle book. Ill order it this week from amazon.ca.
    Would you say, going through the Study Guide my school offers(Fairly Breif on stuff), The testout Lab Sims, The Notes and practice exams and such on this site, and that CCNA Book, that I would be prepared for my CCNA exams?

    Im a little behind in taking my certs, So next week I plan on taking my 2000 Server cert. Then Ill Focus on CCNA and take those exams, then after that Ill get back on my MCSE Track, taking Network Infrastructure, Directory Service Infrastructure, and etc.

    :D

    Thanks,

    I don't know about the testout sims, but if they are good enough to cover the primary hands-on parts of the exam I think the combination will be sufficient to be fully prepared.

    A Deluxe 4th edition just came out wich includes a virtual lab (gold edtion), extras, and a hardcopy book. I would rather buy this if it is the 5th edtion study guide on hard copy, but it doesn't really say. Anyone know of this. I wrote sybex a letter, and still no reply.
