  HI Martin, You are not stupid at all. I removed it because people were abusing it. If someone has something that is important to communicate to me directly, I will use other methods, or enable it briefly for that communication, and then disable it again. Gerry

  Question for Exam 70-501.  I can find the exam home where the most basic test is.  BUT, this is all I find on this exam.  It seems I am refered to solutiondemo.net, which seems to be Microsoft's Web Hosting site.  Unlike other tests for asp.net or other such tests this is all I find.  The E-Learning option is $190 but this is about all I find.  Any thoughts?

  Hi Robert. I'm not certain what information you are looking for beyond what is point to at the exam prep guide page. The prep guide lists the topcis that will be covered on the exam and it lists training resources, of which Microsoft currently only offers elearning, and other links to various technical resources. solutiondemo.net is a web site that allows you to learn more about hosted services by watching demos and test driving some of the services that are available for hosting. Our prep guides do not typically point third party resources but you can find plenty of information on the product at the links provided on the prep guide page. Was there other specific information that you were looking for beyond what is available there? Gerry

  I guess I just dont see 501 information alot, or as much as others like 536, 431, etc.  Is there a list somewhere that compares the number of certified members worldwide for each test?  I have seen one but I do not remember where it was, or whose blog it was I saw it on.  501 does seem like one of the basic certs, good for application hosters. Thanks
