| I wouldn't waste your time taking the 70-270, you will NOT
receive an XP MCP, it is an optional test instead of
taking 70-210. I just passed the 2k Pro and spoke with
Microsoft about the XP Pro, the only thing you would get
out of taking the test is spending $125, reading up on it
is the only pratical thing to do to gain knowledge.
