A Consultant's Dream

After 5 minutes with this book I decided to pay what ever price they wanted for the book. I am a citrix instructor in connecticut and this book is the number one recommendation for all my citrix students. Don't leave home without it.

Excellent Read. Must Have for any Citrix Admin

I recieved this book at IForum and when I saw it I was like WHOA! I didn't think I'd find it interesting at all. But as I started reading I was impressed at the amount of usefull information was in the book. This book covers everything you need to know about MetaFrame XP, and how to setup your enviroment. I'm new to the MetaFrame product but with the knowledge I've picked up from this book I can go back to senior management and make recommendations on how to implement a succesfull MetaFrame farm. This is the first technical book I read without skipping chapters. Every chapter is a must read. Job well done Brian.Mario LondoñoSystems EngineerCarnival Cruise Lines

A New Kind of Technical Guide

On top of the incredibly thorough technical content, this book has one thing that most other technical guides do not - personality. The writing style isn't the normal, monotonous style that is found in so many tech books, it is conversational and sometimes even entertaining. The technical merits of the book speak for themselves - Real world experiences plus the theory behind them. This isn't just a reiteration of the Metaframe XP Admin Guide, it SHOULD BE the Metaframe XP Admin Guide.

Good Presentation of Information

I bought this book to help for a specific problem we were having with NFuse. I only began reading the other chapters after that problem was fixed. One thing that was interesting about this book is that it is full of bulleted lists of advantages and disadvantages for practically all aspects of MetaFrame XP. That made it really easy to decide which options we wanted to use, and why. I also thought that it was interesting that this book didn't waste too much time getting to the point.. It's like each page had tons of information. Honestly, I bought the book because it was the only (non CCA study guide) MetaFrame XP book available, but I think it's excellent and I would highly recommend it to others.
