One of the best kept secrets out there - well done TCAT!
CompTIA Exam 220-221 is the A+ Core exam and having taught the certification several times I found that several book cover both exams but this is the first one I have found that tackles only the single exam and because of that you have better details for the objectives. Over 800 pages, which starts with a overview of the pc from the beginning, then onto motherboards, cpus, storage, scsi, memory, printers, networking and video and sound. Every exam objective has been given coverage, one thing I was impressed with is the easy to follow explanation of the Laser Printer process. The author(s) have the ability to make the complex easy, and they do it throughout the book. There are tips, diagrams, figures and summaries as well as review questions in each chapter, there is even a practice exam included in the book. About the only error I found in the book was on page 674 where it has you refer to Appendix C for Subnetting, there is no Appendix C in the book The cd included with the book uses the BeachFront Engine and has over 450 practice questions included. Overall this book is written by someone I have a great deal of respect for and the material included should give you a very good chance of passing the exam on the first try.
