Do it - you won't regret it. Did the test earlier this year. There is a bit of a training session available to prepare you for the test. I didn't find the help until after I took the test the first time and missed one too many. Spent the hour with the training piece and aced the test the second time. Really not a bad way to qualify for the Action Pack. I went for the Action Pack because I need to support Vista and wanted to put Vista on my desk machine and by the time I got the Action Pack, Win 7RC was out, so I left XP on my desk machine and put W7 on the laptop.
