 Absolutely useless for A+ preparation September 26, 2007
0 out of 11 found this review helpful
If you want to learn about computers and have no prior experience, this is an excellent place to start. If you are studying for your A+ certification, stay away from this book. For over a 1000 pages of material, its ridiculously light on real material. To make matters worse, the "practice exams" have questions that were not covered in the book. Mike Meyers is an absolute joke.
 Lengthy, but Great Study Guide for A+ Certification September 22, 2007
I am a college student and one of my professors uses this study guide as the course textbook and encourages students to get the certification while taking the course. This book is very thorough and if studied correctly, anyone is guaranteed to pass the certification.

I bought this book in the hopes it would fill in some of the gaps in my knowledge, as well as give me more preparation for the A+ exams. There is a lot of good information, but I would agree with a lot of reviewers here that it shouldn't be your only source of study unless you're wickedly smart or already have lots of experience. The best case senario would be to take a class either at a tech school or tech education center. If time or money doesn't allow, the next best thing is to take instructor led training on a CD. This is what I did. That and LOTS of practice tests and of course, take apart an old pc and look at the parts. Oh, the CD training I took is from Specialized Solutions with Bill Ferguson, one of the best trainers in the industry. And if you have Windows 98, don't bother getting this book. You won't be able to access the practice exams. That's a terrible disappointment to me.
Great book for the A+ September 13, 2007
I would definitely buy this book if you have any interest of learning about computers or if your studying for the A+ certification. It is very easy reading and it does a somewhat good job to keep you interested.

I do computer tech work as a hobby and hope to get A+ certified sometime soon. I have only read a little over 200 pages (out of 1100+ pages) of the book. I think that it is very informative and interesting. I have even used the book to figure out a problem that I was having with a PC! I would recommend this book.
