The book was very informative. I have read numerous chapters in the book and felt I got the answers I was looking for. Its not a support manual so you cant turn to this book to solve most problems. However there is a great deal of info in the book that can help you prevent problems. The more you know about the software the less time you spend "experimenting" with it. Instead after you have read this book you will feel like you know what you are doing and what Win 2K can do for you.

I found this book to be exactly as advertised. The indexing was easy to follow and the book well written in plain English. There seems to be an understanding for the people that buy this book really need it. My enjoyment of Windows 2000 improved 100% and is still on the up swing. I can, without a minute's hesitation, recommend this book for the beginner and up; I was a beginner in Windows 2000 after all. Thanks for a great book.

I have always been pleased with any book I have read by any of the authors. When they combined their talents to write this book they did us all a big favor. It is packed with useful information that even a new user will understand. The information in parts IV and VI were especially useful to me in my work. GREAT BOOK!

If you liked Notron before this book is the one you can trust and like. Like before, this book is rather an understanding than a meaningless boring step-by-step manual. It was so wonderful to see how an outstanding leader perceives w2k. Again, this is not a manual like but a lecture like book. It deals with a lot of background story about win2k and internet too. I guess it is good for both novice and expert.
Really helpful book!

I bought this book expecting the usual coverage of how to work with Windows and some theory. I got a lot more. When I ran into problems with my printer, I was able to go into the troubleshooting section and get useful advice on how to fix it. I also found the MSMQ coverage helpful. The company I'm working for is looking at this technology and knowing how to set things up is a real plus.
