    Hi folks.  Just finished the Server 2008 70-646 training kit book.  The practice labs at the end of the lessons are good but I'm looking for a book that has a lot of that sort of thing.  Where you can build virtual networks and kind of expand on the ideas that were shown in brief in the exercises.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good book.  Thanks!

    Hi Fuzzy.

    I don't know of any books, but have you though of investigating the e-learning for 70-646 (this is something i'm studying at the moment).

    Admittedly I got my courses on special offer, but I believe there is a 25% off offer at the moment. I found that each course had virtual labs at the end which walked you through each step to get to the desired conclusion.

    These may be of help. Obviously you can get them as a bulk, ot individually (about £30 i think)

    measureup isn't going to help this guy out with books or even labs, for that matter. I hesitate to point you toward an online source when you're looking for a book but maybe look at testout? Expensive though.
