knowing that CompTia is about to release a new version of the Inet+ exam I am not surprised that Sybex has release this study guide. I am also not surprised to see David Groth as one of the writers since he is considered to be an industry expert. In 600 pages the book has gone through several changes in order to be updated for the new exam, all this was done without sacrificing any information since every exam objective has been covered and there is information beyond the exam. This is the first book I have seen to cover the 1K0-002 exam and the first 45 p[ages take on the basics of networking followed up with the internet basics. While there is only 30 pages given to TCP/IP, which will certainly be enough o pass the exam, I think this section needs to be expanded. I was very happy to see the security section updated with the latest information as this section was well documented. Each chapter has review questions as well as a full practice exam in the book. One other section to expand should be the HTML coding and possibly the JavaScript section. Finally the cd has practice exams in a customizable format and well as flash cards for the pc and palm and finally an e-book. Overall the improvements make this a very good manual and for those wanting to pass the first time a real must have.
Got Me Through The Test

This is a great book to use if you want to pass the i-Net+ exam. After a week of studying this book along with the Exam Notes, I passed the test with an 87. All of the material that I saw on the test was adequately covered by this book. The practice test on the CD-ROM was so close to the questions on the test that I didn't see how Sybex was allowed to market it. Anyway, it got my my i-Net+ certification.
Great intro guide -- Not so good for testing

I work at a telco/ISP providing tech support for T1 and DSL connectivity. I love this book! The author makes complex concepts so simple. Since it covers all the essentials of the Internet, I have recommended it to coworkers and now they are making this book required text for entry level techs! ***** However, be warned, I barely passed using only this book. Although, the book is an excellent guide for the Internet, it does not seem to cover what was on the test. There were questions on the i-Net+ exam which were not addressed in the book.
