Great book, very good to pass the exams [Posted on 2008-05-24]
I just needed the A+ certification ASAP. I took 220-601 (Essentials) and 220-602 (IT Technician) and the book was a good help. My score was 710 and 800, just good enough to be certified. The sixth edition is updated and covers all I needed to pass.
Also bought the vouchers with practice exams from Meyers and many questions were pretty similar.
I studied the material, reading 3 or 4 hours a day, 5 days a week, in one month. I recommend complement the study with wikipedia or whatever quick source of consultation and of course the practice tests
Conclusion: The book and the practice exams are the perfect combination to pass the exams, but you need at least six months of experience in the "Real world" because you find some answers in the field.
Passed both exams first time [Posted on 2008-05-27]
Some background on me, I have a Computer Science degree but didn't enter the field upon graduating. Currently looking to broaden my career choices, I purchased this as a self-study exercise. Through this reading material and the practice exams you can purchase, I passed both exams for the Essentials and IT Technician on my first try. I know this book will retain it's value (until the whole computing world goes to different OSs) on my workspace shelf. I would highly reccomend the purchase of this product. Now on to Network+. Good luck all.
A+ Certification [Posted on 2008-06-13]
It's a very good study tool, especially, if you need to troubleshoot your computer for various problems.
all-in-one should mean just that [Posted on 2008-06-20]
I must say this book has been very helpful, but according to most of the reviews I have read, I am very hesitant to take the exams with this book as my only study guide. Also, I have found several answers that were wrong in the questions at the end of each chapter. With only 10 questions how hard can it be to make sure they are 100% correct??? Seems very careless... I have the 6th edition of Meyers' book, but I think I am going to buy Exam Cram's book of nothing but practice questions.
Wow - A Pleasure to read! [Posted on 2008-08-01]
This is a GREAT informative book for anyone with computer experience, brand new to computers, or just the casual hobbyist. Will explain the ins & outs of computers with wonderful photos and illustrations. I am halfway through and even look forward to picking the book up again to read. He provides a 'history' of various subjects and covers even the most up-to-date technologies.
I only wish that it had color photos/illustrations and covered laptops a little more than it does. He does add in a little bit about laptops, but I suppose the book has enough content as it is.
This book will have you ahead of the techs over at 'Geek Squad' in no time.
