BEWARE: If you bought the Server book, DON'T BUY THIS ONE!
Kinnaman has written truly great books that will prepare you for the MCSE exams, but I feel it is important to reiterate what the gentleman from Oklahoma City said about this book: IT IS A VIRTUAL COPY OF THE SERVER BOOK. Kinnaman tries to cover this up by adding a phrase here and there to sentences, but the book is essentially the same. This begs the question, are the Server and the Server in the Enterprise exams so similar that one can write the same book as a study guide for both? The reason I gave this book one star, even though it may sufficiently prepare you for the Enterprise exam, is that I think either Kinnaman or the publisher (or both) was (were) dishonest in not coming out with a Server/Enterprise combination book, that simply included the few chapters that don't appear in both books into one study guide. He (They) are trying to rip you off.

BTW, the Table of Contents in the Enterprise book is totally screwed up (after the Intro, it starts off on page 77 with Windows 95, skipping Chapters 2 & 3), plus the chapter on Troubleshooting is repeated twice in the Table of Contents)

PS: Can someone write another review that lists the chapters that differ between the Server and the Server in the Enterprise books?

Repeat of NT Server 4.0
I bought this book because I bought the NT Server 4.0 book from these guys (which I would rate 4 or 5 stars). Unfortunlately, except for 1 1/2 chapters, it is the exact same book! So I am sending it back. I have to think there is more to the Enterprise test than what I studied for the Server Test. If not, I guess it would be a good book since I liked the NT Server 4.0 book.

The most helpful book I've found
The Accelerated MCSE series has been an excellent source for exam preparation. After attending classes and on-the-job training, I used this book to put it all together. New Rider and Sybex pale in comparison. This book puts all the concepts together nicely and succinctly. I used this for the general overview and Tom Carter's excellent book on NT to complement Accelerated MCSE.
