Honestly, I didn't think 464 was that hard. I'd say that any of the cert books (they're about 90% the same) will work. The book will just organize your studying.

Congrats, and thanks for the notes.

I am not knowledgeable enough to consider myself a cracker (true term for what the media calls hacker, all of us are hackers), but even I can break...

Thanks, but if you wouldn't mind, can you put these in the survey linked from the article?

Well, it got up to 50F here today. I got to walk around in shorts and a t-shirt after my swim (inside).

My understanding is that this is a check to be sure all files/paths are < 256 characters. Do you have long paths for the installation folder?

Use multiple roles. I agree with Elliot this should be justified because it's a PIA for administration, but I'd just create new roles, perhaps one for each table if needed,...
