Rating: - Excellent resource!!
I bought this book back in April to help me learn Windows Server 2008. At first I was somewhat overwhelmed as this is a monster book at nearly 1500 pages. I hung in there and read through Chapters 1, 2 and 3. Those chapters introduce new features, provide advice for planning and give specific instructions for installing Windows Server 2008. They are so well organized and so well presented that I felt better about making the move to Windows Server 2008.
Rating: - Good book, but one problem:
I like this book, but what's with the draft-mode printing? The text is so light compared to my other "Inside Out" books, I wonder if this is Microsoft's way of trying to save some money by printing in what looks like draft mode? I study late at night by a lamp, and I have to strain sometimes to continue reading hours at a time with this light print.
My other issue is the ebook, the font doesn't really resemble the book. It seems like the book is printed in Times New Roman (I could be ... Read More
Rating: - Truly Fantastic!
Stanek's Windows Server 2008 Inside Out is the definitive resource for network administrators who are deploying and using Windows Server 2008. I've never found a single server book that tells you everything you will ever need to know about any edition of Windows Server, but this one comes close and it digs in much deeper into the most relevant topics than any other Windows Server 2008 book I've used.
I have my MCSE, CCNE, CompTIA Security+ certifications, and I have enjoyed reading Stanek's ... Read More
Rating: - The Best WinSvr08 Manual
This manual is awesome for all your WinSvr08 needs and it's all delivered in William Stanek's extremely friendly, to-the-point prose. No stand-up routines and asides to wade through to get what you need, but with clarity and intelligence throughout that keeps you reading. Yes, even though it's a computer manual.
Throughout, you'll be rewarded with tons of practical tips and how-tos that make such a difference. For example, I've been using Windows since before WinNT, and I got a bunch of excellent ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent, a truly great resource to have!
Stanek once again is able to take technical topics and make them understandable. I have been running WinServer08 since beta one, and this book is an excellent reference for those of us already familiar with the Windows operating systems and newcomers alike.
It's written like all Stanek's others to deliver what I needed. It's so good I read the first few chapters straight through.
I have enjoyed reading Stanek's books for years. My understanding always has increased while reading his ... Read More
