I\u2019ve had this on the back burner to do for a couple of weeks but a certain well known (and very nice!) MVP was doing something similar<\/a> so I thought I\u2019d wait for him to finish.<\/p>\n

So what have I got?<\/p>\n

Two copies of the e-book version for:<\/p>\n

Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard, Configuring (70-169) Certification Guide<\/a><\/p>\n

\"(MCTS):<\/a><\/p>\n

Co-authored by Drew Hills who is an active contributor to the SMB IT Professional community in Australia and Robert Crane of the excellent CIAOPS blog<\/a> and \u201cNeed to Know Podcast\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The book focuses on the areas covered in the 70-169 exam for setting up and configuring SBS 2011 Standard. It\u2019s a great resource to have.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be writing a review of the book once I\u2019ve finished reading through it but in the meantime if you\u2019d like a copy of your own:<\/p>\n

Leave a comment <\/strong>detailing the lengths you\u2019d go to just to get a copy of this book. Comments can be funny, silly, scary, crazy, sad, heart warming, whatever! Whichever entry entertains me the most <\/strong>will get the first copy and for the second copy I\u2019ll literally pull a name out of hat<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Closing date is 18th July.<\/p>\n
