Customer Reviews

I wish there were more like it... A nice hometown approach..

This book brings a reconditioning to the soul when you do not need to be overloaded by the lowlevel language that the technical folks get into. Sure it is short, to the point, generallized, but GET THIS BOOK it is great reading while waiting for your computer to boot up and I must say... wonderful bathroom reading.. Cheap enough to have that extra copy in your bathroom and in your office.. I wish there were other books just referenced and crossreferenced like it.. wonderfull index, toc, and even the Colophon was a nice touch.

Excellent supplementary material

Had never seen or heard of this book but I had $20.00 left on a gift certificate and the price of the book fit within that. I am very pleased to have ended up with a book that thoroughly covers many (if not all) terms you will encounter as you prepare for and take the core exams. Kudos to whoever made the decision to include terms from the TCP/IP material, that helped me decide to buy the book without knowing anything about it first. I feel the book is a must for beginners and if you are already on your way to finishing your MCSE you still might want to check it out and see if it benefits you.

An excellent reference

This book is an excellent reference. It does not include all terms in the New Riders books, but the terms it does define are put in clear terms and are well defined. You'll find this book a good terminology primer.

A wonderful reference book.

I'm currently on my way to becoming an MCSE and I have found this book to be a great way help me study. With any confusing term or acronym you encounter, you can quickly find a concise explanation on the topic.

Very helpful, especially to the Novice.

Keep this book alongside while you study for your MCSE. It has comprehensive, yet brief, explainations of the myriad concepts and terminology you need to master for the exams. It is especially helpful for those who are new or relatively inexperienced, or if your knowledge does not extend to the encyclopedic. It is especially helpful if you are overwhelmed by the vast array of acronyms that have grown up around this industry. Place it alongside a good computer glossary, and your study routine will be eased. I hope they come out with similar volumes for the electives and Internet courses.
