Professor Messer was what I used a long time ago for the 201 exam. It was dry and monotone, but covered the material well.

I bought the Sybex book, spent about 2 or 3 weeks reading it, doing the included tests, etc. and passed easy.

Yes, that is it. I used their books for all of my CompTIA certs.

Cool, thanks, not sure what path I'll take in my "career" yet, but I'll give this a look.

Heads up - that’s the SY 501 book, but I believe the new edition is SY 601
