    Could be a useful one for the newbies looking for direction and what to study up on or maybe learn extra stuff for the Essentials exam. 8)

    Yes, wiki-p is also useful for non-noobies wanting to go into more technical depth.

    Yes that is true.. but you can use the above as a guideline.. its better to know more than just what you need to know! :biggrin

    Yes always, especially in this field. It doesnt do any harm to touch on knowledge beyond A+ when studying A+ (hence why mike meyers has 'Beyond A+' sections to the chapters) because your just touching on the next step, plus the majority of the entry level jobs want more knowledge than the A+ so everything helps.

    Wikipedia is a great information source provided people use it wisely and at the end of the day, if something seems incorrect on there, people can just ask the question on here.

    True... but the warning is well heeded: bad information is sometimes worse than no information at all. Not saying Wikipedia is full of bad info... but anyone can write whatever they want. Taken with a grain of salt and multiple other references to verify what you read, it can be a very useful resource.
