Hello,

Thanks
Dave

Hi Raymond,
I was intending to learn SCCM management or Operation. now i'm confused. Should i take the 2012 training or 2007? (I self study and take the exam) just thinking how many businesses will implement 2012.Or does it include everything that 2007 has, just a different UI? Please advise
Thanx
Eli
