Try the "Making of Windows 2003 Swimsuit" book. Great layout and the centerfold...sheesh...I don't have to tell you I had some great Windows dreams last night

Hey Ryan,

I don't have any ideas on the Server book, but can you recommend ANY computer books that won't put me to sleep in 5 minutes, AND that are clearly followable? (I just made up a word!) The last Microsoft Press book I read really sucked because almost all their examples do not work if you code them and try to run them. How can you learn from a book when it's examples don't work??? I hate MS Press!

I have no clue when it comes to computer books, but a couple of the ones my husband is reading now are : Jakarta Struts by O'Reily and Servelets and Java Server Pages by Sun. He seems to be engrossed in them......

Speaking of that, is anybody here A+ certified?
If so, can you recommend me any study guides and maybe explain how to get certified?

Thanks

Stefan

O'Reilly is always a good bet imo. Plus I'm a huge fan of the Wrox line - however i'm a programmer and I have no idea if they make any Windows Server books. I'd imagine that they do - but I couldn't tell you for sure.

Also - IMO - keep away from the Microsoft Press books - they usually have as many mistakes as their software has bugs.
