[mdlug] Expanding skills required

[Robert Adkins]

Hey all,

    I am needing to expand some of my experience with certain Microsoft 
Technologies in order to enhance my job searching prospects.

    What I need is access to trial versions of Windows Server 2003 with 
a trial Exchange server setup as well.

    I had started up working towards MCSE with Windows 2000 products and 
soon realized that the costs of certification was more costly than the 
benefit, considering they devalue those certifications so often. Also, I 
realized that MS products are incredibly simple to figure out, 
especially if one has access to things called "Books" or can read and 
knows how to type in searches into things like Google.

    Unfortunately, that is meaningless to HR people looking to hire IT 
staff.

    Anyone have access to, for lending or know a good place to easily 
acquire trial/self-training versions of that software?

    Thanks in advance,
    Rob
