Was the best study material for the 70-290 Exam (Managing and Maintaining
a Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003 Environment) ?

I already have Minasi's book Mastering Windows 2003 Server, and a very
good read it is too, but what would the panel recommend as the best prep
for the exam ?

Set up a test lab. Break things. Fix them. Repeat.

Really... it'll get you much further than just reading.

I agree with T-Bone about a lab. Breaking things and having to fix them on
your own is always the best way to learn.

If your question is specifically on 290 study materials, I am a big fan of
CBT Nuggets (www.cbtnuggets.com). Also check out this link:

I have been doing that with my LAN at home,I even work where there are
probably a 100 Windows servers, and I can look around and see how they are
setup etc.

The question was more to do with what would be the best book, my journey
to work includes about 35 mins on the train, so I was after a decent book
that reflects the course content.
