Did the test earlier this year. There is a bit of a training session
available to prepare you for the test. I didn't find the help until
after I took the test the first time and missed one too many. Spent
the hour with the training piece and aced the test the second time.
Really not a bad way to qualify for the Action Pack. I went for the
Action Pack because I need to support Vista and wanted to put Vista on
my desk machine and by the time I got the Action Pack, Win 7RC was
out, so I left XP on my desk machine and put W7 on the laptop.

+1 Exactly. If you do consulting and charge money for it you are
eligible. Nowadays you have to take a test first before you get
the Action Pack, but I haven’t had to do that for my renewal yet
so I can’t say how hard the test is…

That's true. But if you do any consulting or outside work at all,
you are eligible.

Im struggling to find an easy/ cheap way to get a SBS2008
server for
home use.
If I go for TechNet Plus will that give me a full license of said
product to use for personal use? Or is it all trialware?
