Publisher's Synopsis
Candidates for CompTIA A+ need to pass the 901 hardware exam and also the 902 software exam. This study guide covers BOTH. Hardware and software are always mutually dependent in the real world so it feels more natural to learn both together. Some older technologies are no longer covered in the new exams. You will need to learn PCs as well as mobile devices. Software-wise, you no longer need to deal with DOS. Instead you will see coverage on Windows 8/8.1 and other mainstream non-Windows operating systems such as Linux, Android, ios ...etc.
