A+ Guide to Managing and Maintaining Your PC, Comprehensive Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I, like so many others, was required to have this book for two of my classes. While it is a very informative, useful book, it is not very well-organized and is very boring. The videos on the CD that comes with it is very helpful to understand a lot of the hands-on stuff. Many of the "Reviewing the Basics"...

Minimalist Lighting: Professional Techniques for Location Photography Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I've been using the minimalist style of lighting, in one form or another, since the late 1980s, and I learned much of what I know through the painful process of trial-and-error. Austin, Texas-based photographer Kirk Tuck has taken all that basic knowledge and wrapped it up into a neat 128-page introductory...

MCTS Self-Paced Training Kit (Exams 70-648 & 70-649): Transitioning Your MCSA/MCSE to Windows Server® 2008 Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I recently passed the 70-649 exam with good scores and this book, 70-648/70-649 Transitioning Your MCSA/MCSE to Windows Server 2008 Trainng Kit, was very helpful. However the text of this book alone, nor any other, most likely would not allow one to pass the 70-649 exam that covers a lot of territory...

Network Security for Dummies Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought this Network Security for Dummies after spending two frustrating hours in a large bookstore looking at one security text after another and finding that they were all written for people who already know a lot about networks.

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)After having read the subtitle -- Advanced Digital Forensic Analysis of the Windows Registry' -- I was a bit surprised to find that this book seems to have its roots in 'the number of analysts ...

Mike Meyers' CompTIA A+ Guide: Essentials, Third Edition (Exam 220-701) (Mike Meyers' Computer Skills) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I hope that Amazon or Mr. Meyers will edit the description of this book. There are "End of Chapter Quizzes." However, there are no End of Chapter ANSWERS.

CCNA Practice Questions (Exam 640-802) (3rd Edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Reviews are always a bit subjective, but probably even more so with certification material like this book.
