Outdated

This book does offer the fundamentals of computers, but for the price of this book you could get a book from your local library and not even spend a dime and still have an updated book. If you have to buy this book then I recommend buying it used, because the book is based on Windows Vista. It mentioned Windows 7 as the future operating system. I am sure you can learn a thing or two about commands in command prompt and such. All in all this can help you with the certification exam, but I can't stress enough to practice, practice and practice.
