TS: Windows 7 Configuration...or how I lost my mind

Certifications from Microsoft have seemed to be sorely lacking in the past, but I guess this time they made sure it isn't. On week 5 of studying for this to get 6 CU's at my current university and I think I have it down. So next week meeting with the adviser and then referring to get my voucher.

Now lets get to the nitty gritty, I've taken both the comparable Windows XP & Windows Vista certifications before this, and Microsoft really stepped up the game on this one. They added so much to the little things that changed in Windows 7 that you really have to work at this. Also I think they took criticisms before that the exam was too easy for Vista and beefed this one up for Windows 7.

The study materials I recommend:
