MCSA/MCSE Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-284): Implementing and Managing Microsoft® Exchange Server 2003

I've done an semi instructer led classroom training, where I recieved the Microsoft official Course book (MOC) aswell. I used this book to lookup the subjects that weren't covered in the MOC book like load ballancing and clustering.
Also after the training with the MOC was finished I used this book to read up about the subjects I failed in the test exams, because this book has a different way of explaning things.
After 8 weeks I passed this exam, without much hands-on experience. This exam also completed my MCSA 2003: Messaging and MCSE 2003 training.

highly recommended if you are thinking of taking or need to retake the 70-291 exam. well explained and makes topics easy to understand

This text impressed me as the worst technical text I've ever read (I went through 4 years of texts for an BSEE). It's as if the authors were given 3 days to write it, the structure and planning of the presentation is so awful.

Does everybody think they can write a book nowadays? These two writers didn't even bother to coordinate bethween each other on what they were writing. The whole book is a nonsence. Going after the page count not the quality.

Horrible experience ! I never received the product that I paid for. What else is there to say ?
