RE: Need WS2008 book recommendation

[Free, Bob]

The unleashed book had a very nice refresh for R2.

Subject: Need WS2008 book recommendation

Well, a couple of my clients are getting off the dime and replacing
aging 
systems with Windows Server 2008, so it's time for me to get up to speed
as 
fast as I can.  Looking for recommendations on good books on WS 2008 R2.

O'Reilly has one, and I like O'Reilly books:

Windows Server 2008: The Definitive Guide - O'Reilly Media
http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596514112

but it's dated 2008 so it won't cover R2.  

Anyway, recommendations welcomed.

TIA

Angus

Hey, that's pretty neat how you can "look inside" the book on the Amazon site.
