Whoop Whoop Passed 70-290 Exam!
Just passed the 70-290 Windows Server 2003 Environment Exam!

Have to say the exam was probably the easiest I have done so far, probably because I was in the 'zone' when I sat the exam.

Without doubt, I have enjoyed studying for this exam the most. Anything that I did not understand or needed to know how it worked, I either:

1. Posted on here for advice
2. Asked colleagues
3. Kept pluggin away until I found out the answer!

Anyway, I scored a crackin' 980.

I'm not normally a fan of lots of smilies, but here is a picture of my weekend:



Edit: Will post information on Study Guide, Lab etc a bit later.

Give that man a little guy running around inside an avatar picture!

Very obvious, but very good advice
