Vista certifications

Hello,

Can anyone confirm the following?

Vista has no trial software to learn vista to get certified?

Vista certification books will no longer come with trial software?

If so, how do I obtain trial vista software?

Cheers,

BillyBob

Obtain any copy from a friend and use it for 30 days without activating
it. After 30 days, you have to have a valid product key.

Sign up for Exam Insurance ($175.00), before you take your next (non-Vista)
exam. You get a free 1-year subscription to TechNet Plus Direct, which
includes a copy of Vista (and Windows Server, Exchange, Office, etc. --
pretty much everything except the development tools).

See: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mc...e/default.mspx

I got my TechNet subscription about a month after I took the exam (I passed,
but you don't have to for the subscription). Other people have reported a
long wait, but 1 month seemed reasonable to me (maybe it took longer for
some people?).

Have fun!
