The hardest thing for me was trying to figure out what I needed for the exam. But trust me, all of it was there. The book was helpful because it explained the concepts thoroughly and took its time. I had to use some other test prep just to get a feel for the kind of questions that were on the exam, but I could not have studied without this book. I cant stand reading everything on technet, because the computer screen glare works my eyes. Give me an old fashioned book and let me work at the pages. Good book!Very Detailed, Just what I wanted,
June 18, 2008 Just what I needed. Setup the Vista deployment test center and all is well. Just the correct amount of details.Handy resource,
February 24, 2008 This resource kit isn't exactly the kind of book you sit down and read cover to cover, but it's always handy to have around. I refer to it regularly. Well done.Windows Vista Resource Kit,
January 18, 2008 The book is extremely detailed and technical. However, everything is in it. The book is best used by those who have used and are familiar with XP. I haven't yet checked out the CD that comes with the book. Excellent reference, could use a proofread,

Typo issues aside, the book is a very useful resource. The coverage of Vista's new (file) image-based deployment is comprehensive. Changes such as KMS (for licensing), admx (for Group Policy), file/registry virtualization (under UAC and IE Protected Mode), and BCD (replaces boot.ini) are discussed. Key additions to the collection of Group Policy objects are highlighted. And, of course, there is a lot of trivia-type information that, though interesting, may not find actual day-to-day use.
The resource kit tools are focused mainly on enterprise deployment and scripting. If you are looking for the types of tools included with previous Windows resource kits, you will be disappointed.
