What to bring:
Students should bring their own network ready laptops (with CD) preferably running Windows XP and an open mind. A CD will be provided with reference material, sample code, and utilities. Where possible, students should pre-install VMWare images of Win2k and associated software applications should they wish to participate in and experiment with live configuration changes.
This course covers a substantial amount of material for many different Microsoft applications and technologies in relatively short period of time. Students should expect a wide range of topics and a quick pace.
