Lazy authors haven't removed all the 901/902 questions

This is a good way to test your knowledge, but unfortunately some of the knowledge being testing isn't the same as the knowledge you'll need to pass the A+ 1001/1002. Clearly a number of the questions are on topics that have been removed from the latest tests and the authors haven't bothered to make sure that their questions align perfectly with the current exam objectives. This can be very frustrating because as you're going through it's hard to keep track of which questions you got wrong because you made a mistake and which ones aren't supposed to be on the test in the first place! You'll spent half your time just trying to figure out if you really need to know the differences between FireWire 400 and 800 or if it's not even on the current objectives at all (hint: it's not). That's how you wanted to spend your study time, right?

Yes, extra knowledge could come in handy someday and these tests are known to sometimes include information a little outside of the strictly stated objectives. Having said that, my goal right now is to maximize my score on this particular test, not waste time on subjects that CompTIA have decided isn't worth memorizing anymore.

Bottom line: this test isn't as up-to-date as I need/expect and while most of the questions are good and help your prepare/learn, there are too many leftovers from the older exams for this to be as useful a training tool as it should be. If I can pretty easily verify what's supposed to be on the current exam compared to deprecated topics from the previous exam, can't the authors do that too?

Incorrect questions

Incorrect questions and answers through out the book

Example Question 39 in Section Two for example
You need to configure a wireless router for an office network. The office manager wants new devices to be able to automatically join the network and announce their presence to other networked devices. Which service should you enable to allow this?

DHCP
NAT
QoS
UPnP

They wrote the answer as
D. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a standard designed to simplify the process of connecting devices to a network and to enable those devices to automatically announce their presence to other devices on the network.

This is fundamentally not what UPnP does. UPnP forwards ports automatically not connect devices. I have found over 10 incorrect answers so far.

Somehow useful but outdated and misleading

The material is challenging and a lot of it is still pertinent yet it seems like these two guys blatantly recycled a bunch of outdated questions from the earlier versions of their book/ exams mixed'em up with a few "revised" new ones and are probably laughing at us neophytes right now,
I mean they are including Windows Vista! ? Vista?really? come on!
Not cool, kind of lazy on their part
