 Impressive!!!
William Stanek is the #1 windows guru for a reason. His work is highly respected and his pocket consultants are always excellent. The first edition of this book is the go to book for every ITer I've ever worked with. When the second edition came out, I didn't hesitate to buy it and I wasn't disappointed.
I normally don't read technical books cover to cover, but I read this cover to cover within days of buying it. I was amazed at the depth of information and the attention to detail. The author clearly knows what's important and what's not. His writing is clear, concise and no nonsense. Every one who works in IT should get a copy of this book.
The book starts out explaining the fundamentals you need to master the command line. I really liked how the author covered every facet from the basic to the advanced. There's a massive amount of information on maintaining and monitoring computers using the command line and automating it all with scheduling. I didn't know half the tools that are included with Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or that you could do so much with them.
