I think that Lasher summed this up the best. So, I'm going to give you
some links to some excellent training material.
http://www.microsoft.com/virtualpc
http://www.microsoft.com/virtualserver (These two are for the
assumption that you don't have a lot of computers to make a network with).
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver (For a few evaluation copies of
Windows Server 2003 R2)
Now for the important ones..
http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=br_ss_hs/102-9867888-6178502?search-alias=aps&keywords=70-291
(Search results for 70-291 at amazon)
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/70-291.asp (should be obvious)
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/5433.asp (You'll find this at
amazon also)
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/6469.asp (This is at amazon also)
Now.. Here's something to think about. You spent some $$$ on the cheat
tools, then spent about $100 or so to fail the test. So, spend the $$$
on these books and products, and then spend the $100 or so on the test.
You may be surprised.
And, next time when you prepare for the next exam, remember how
wonderfully you did using the cheat tools. Then, go to Microsoft and
the different book ordering sites, and get the right things. It will be
money well spent. Simply because, you can't use the cheat sheets as
reference later on when you have an issue come up. You can with these
books and tools.
