Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Well writen book and clear concepts in the text
Review: The author writes the solutions of many problems that you may face in using w2k. If you want a toubleshooting guide of w2k, buying this book is a good choice. Though I think this book does not cover enough topics in w2k operation's problems, readers still get something they want to know.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great For Novice Administrators
Review: The title suits this book because "quick fixes" is what this is about without much forethought into the implications of performing the tasks. If this book was intended for Windows 98 or under, this wouldn't be a bad thing. However, since its focus is Windows 2000 (Professional and Server), then an inexperienced individual may cause more damage than good. Still, its useful to bring light to troublesome situations.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: too simple
Review: Too basic and beginner...read it top to bottom and didn't learn a single new tidbit. If you know what the 2000 control panels and admin tools do, and can figure out how to use /? to find the arguments to a command line tool, this book will teach you nothing new. Even the RARE registry fixes are all found in the xteq setup tools. Even if a novice who didn't know how to use a control panel, the instructions seem to brief to be of much use to such a person. Not much info on troubleshooting or fixing things, just "how to" the basics and not much (any) info on what to do if it doesn't work or something goes wrong.

Can't recommend it for beginners, and can't recommend it for beyond beginners either.
