This guide is well written for people like me who need some help understanding the ins and outs of Server 2012. I was very impressed with the was the index is laid out in such a way that I have been able to easily find any information I need. I bought this book to go along with a class I was taking as the class book was bad, very bad. I can truly say that this book has really helped me understand a lot about server and helped me get prepared to take the 2012 cert.

The bottom line is I had problems with my Vista install where it would say that my PC was not protected until I rebooted, so after a few reboots I went to tech support. After 14 reboots I figured it wasn't for me.
