Not what i was expecting
This book, describes in detail all the new features contained in Windows Server 2003. But when it comes to using Windows Server 2003, detail is seriously lacking.

I recomend this book for anyone who would like to know what Windows Server 2003 does. But if you want to know how to use Windows Server 2003, I suggest you look somewhere else.
