Rod and Dave,
Thank you very much for the Gift certificate and the MOF Guide Editing.
Dave, I agree that myITforum is one of
the most valuable resources out there and I too would not be what I am today
without this valuable resource.
Just to give you an idea how I spent the 100.00 Amazon Gift certificate, I
ordered:

Reference: Systems Management Server 2003" - Ron D. Crumbaker
"Pro SMS 2003"

Rod Kruetzfeld

Problem-Solution Approach" -

I already have Rods books so these will be welcome additions to my resource
library.
Once again, I thank you Rod, and you Dave Jaffe for the wonderful day I had
today and for the chance to get some great books.
Thanks Always,

The
Start to Finish Guide to MOF
Editing book explains the basics of WMI, as it relates to hardware
inventory, as well as the hardware inventory process itself. Each of the various
methods for modifying hardware inventory is described in great detail with many
examples.
Customizing hardware inventory is explained in an easy to read
format which greatly simplifies learning and also provides useful examples. The
end result is an informative guide to modifying hardware inventory that is fun
to read.
"This
work demystifies hardware inventory customization with practical examples and
step-by-step guidance, and I recommend that every SMS administrator keep this
one in your tool bag or bookmarked on your favorites list!"
Steven D. Kaczmarek
The Start to
Finish Guide to MOF Editing is valued at $60.00 retail.
