Mastering Windows Server 2003: Upgrade Edition for SP1 and R2

Fantastic! A must have for any IT Tech. He takes the info that you "need" to have, along with "real world" experiences in a format that is both entertaining and informative.

I've 10 years in the biz, have read many books, attended many seminars. No one comes close to Mark. His Mastering Windows 2003 book is about as complete as it gets for Windows 2003 and the SP1/R2 book continues the trend. It's certainly not your typical geek fare and it's not MS marketing material. Mark tells you what MS have to say and importantly how it really works and should be configured, all with a sense of humour. I'm looking forward to the Vista security book. Be sure to also check out Mark's web forum and the Mastering W2003 book (this SP1/R2 book only covers the new features).
