    Hi All,

    Just wanted to share this with you guys/gals.

    Trika has posted this on her blog (so don't worry about if I'd released some privy info).

    I did the upgrade (beta exam) - some of the resources I used are in this thread, all of these, plus using Vista in a live environment since beta 3. However I would recommend also getting "MCTS: Microsoft Windows Vista Client Configuration Study Guide for 70-620" (see here).

    Currently working my way through that book, keep finding that life is getting in the way and hampering my progress though. :dry

    Took advantage of this 40% off offer yesterday though and booked the exam for july 23rd.

    I figured that booking the exam gives me a target to get off my butt for.

    In addition to Michaels book I'm using the objectives from the MS site, plus a Vista VM (on me Mac!). I did have it on my work laptop but it was just so slow that I ended up going back to XP for daily use.

    Mac, Mac??? What is this thing you talk about :wink: We're getting a mac for IT Services here as we're going to have to support them due to some sort of Animation workshop that we're going to be running.

    I know how you feel, while my work laptop is fine running Vista (Toshiba A100 C2D 2ghz, 2gb ram, etc). It's starting to be a pain with software compatibility. And some policies in AD don't work/run, was thinking about promoting our Server 2008 beta to a DC, but I don't have the balls at the moment, having it as a member server is what we have it has. I know we can import admx templates into a 2k3 environment, but I can't be bothered.

    Just re-reading what I just typed, it kinda sounds like I'm not in the mood for working, and you know, I ain't :)
