Note: If you run into an issue whereby you don’t get the “save as pdf” visible when using IE (as I ran into) just access the link, and when you get to the button, just right click on it and ‘save as’ the PDF directly to your machine.  

Thanks MSLearning for the heads up!

Yes indeed, there will  be 2 new books this month, but the links to download them will not work until April 15th! So you’ll need to try the links again then!

As soon as they’re available, I’ll update this post with pictures to them as I usually do! Which also is a good way to ensure there aren’t any issues downloading them  like past books (Let’s not forget the massive Vista Resource kit from before :))

So keep on the look out and more free books coming soon! :)
