 Amazing book for A+ prep January 30, 2010

I had previous edition, and as soon as this one was published I got it. Love it so far. Will recommend.
Best Source For Computer Repair February 15, 2010
J. Luis Mariscal (ESCONDIDO, CA, US)
When I went to college I was using the 3rd edition of this same book about 2003, and let me tell you that they have done a lot of improvement on this one, I know its kind of expensive, but it is worth it, they have done a good job, much better than 3rd edition a lot of color pictures, tips and much more and if you are planing to be an A+ certified this is the book. It is missing windows 7, windows 7 came after the book was published, it covers some because windows 7 was already released as trial, but not to intense. Thank You Very Much keep the good work. JLuis
Excellent IT book. February 20, 2010
Kevin R. Lewis (Indiana)
I purchased this book for my ECT 372 class for my IT major. I already have my A+ certification but my major says i had to take this class. This book is one of the best textbooks ive ever used. Its going on my shelf along with my Grobbs Electronic books. The information in there is fairly recent (thus only a 4 star rating). Theres not much stuff in there about windows 7. The only other complaint I have with this book is the weight. Its the heaviest textbook I have ever used. Its 7 pounds and you can feel the weight. Though it has plenty of pictures and info in it so its worth the weight. Even if your not in college and are interested in computers, get this book, youll be able to fix most problems that arise with computers.

Parts of this book are very good, The exams at the end of each chapter are good, But not having the answers anywhere is a real pain, The chapter about hex numbers where the author talks about widgets and gidgets in base 3 being loaded into a truck by someone is terrible and should be ignored by all, I passed both A+ exams using this as my only reading guide ( Along with heaps of net time) so overall not too bad
