Win Web Hosting

I have the 2005 edition of this book. The 2005 edition of this book was written by an author who teaches ASP.NET in San Diego. The 2005 addition author takes time to explain concepts and the real estate of Visual Web Developer. Unfortunately, in chapter 6 the book refers to Web Data Administrator which is obsolete, so I decided to buy the latest revision. Well, the third addition was written by new authors, which seems to give only the facts with little or no explanation of concepts. The third addition is a clumsy read. I grew tired of fighting to understand what the xxxx the authors where taking about so I returned the book.***The preceding statements are not a statement of fact but merely the personal, subjective opinion of the writer.

I have read many technical books and this is so far the best. I know my way around computers and the basics of programming and wanted to learn some more of ASP.NET. This book has been an excellent tutorial. Even the basics of object oriented programming and SQL are explained. Loved it.

There is one caveat. The book was written for Windows XP and IIS 6. If you are using Windows Vista and IIS 7 like me, be prepared to search for some stuff yourself. Do not worry though, some Googling will help you along the way.
