    I have this old A+ book I bought about 4 years ago, but it covers nothing on the latest operating systems, and the technologies are outdated.

    How do I know if it covers everything on the A+ syllabus?

    Oh sorry I forget to mention the title. It's called "A+ Certification Bible" by Clarke and Phillips. Has anyone ever heard of this book and do you think it's outdated?

    It should say which exam it is for, or give a date that the objectives were issued that they are working to.

    Failing that the ISBN would help!

    A quick Google suggests this
    Code:
    Covers: Exam 220-201 and 220-202
    which is the previous set of objectives to the current set.

    Depending on how soon you want to sit the exam it will be worth either getting the current copy of Meyers, or waiting for the new objectives.

    Hm - on my last phrase there - I still can't find anything on the CompTIA about new objectives.

    So if they are coming it will be a long way ahead!

    Does anyone know anything about this book called "Complete Guide to A+ Certification" by Michael Graves. I heard it covers the latest objectives, but I don't know if it's worth the money.
