New SBS 2003 Book

Courtesy of my SBS User Group I recently received the new SBS 2003 book by Syngress How to Cheat at Managing Windows Small Business Server 2003. I haven't made it all the way through yet but the book is nicely laid out. It truly can be said that it is written for the person that is managing the small business network that is running SBS 2003. It provides clear, concise ways to do simple tasks within SBS.

Throughout the book are listed "some independant advice" sections that provide some key areas to look into or download more information from such places as microsoft.com/downloads. Overall a great book for newbies to SBS.

My only negative to the book would seem to be the overall size for the price. For $50 the 512 pgs seem a little light. For consultants the SBS 2003 Best Practices book (Harry Brelsford) or the Administrator's Companion are monsters compared to this book.
