Good work!

Locked and loaded. I took DataSys v1 and actually enjoyed doing that one. Looking forward to DS2. /r

Congrats on the win. What's next on the list?

Counseling? Nah. I'll just convince any therapist that Linux is better and Microsoft will lose more business - which...may not be a half bad idea. Mostly, those that slink back to Windows usually aren't ready for the commitment of having to relearn all the muscle memory keystrokes and shortcuts...

Usually, a publisher will offer a promotional copy - this has been a go-to for me when I just needed a text to study. For me, however, that has been less and less. But then, while I call it a blessing to get free copies of texts, expecting it or even demanding it, to me is no good...

Okay...do you not have the links to the content? They would be in the emails.

You, sir, are in need of prayer. And since I'm taking some ministerial classes these days, I think you need to stop by for a little chat, my friend:

Well done. /r

That would be a good question - I've never explored the Office Pro content, myself. I flirted a bit with the MOU certs before, but never got around to taking one.
