I'm going to upgrade 3 hosts from XP to 7 as soon as the 6th edition comes out. :-)

Windows 6th edition will be pure Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008R2. All information pertaining to prior versions will be removed. The book will still get bigger due to the new feature descriptions.

The best approach (and what MS Support does) is to use the version of the book that matches the OS being investigated. Thus if you are looking at NT4/2000/2003/XP reference the 4th edition, if it is Vista/2008 reference the 5th edition, and if it is Win7/2008R2 reference the 6th edition.

Will the 6th Edition be targeted at Windows 7? When will it be available. I can't wait to dig in but don't want to spend the money and time on potentially outdated information. Please write the book better and faster than ever before for half as much money with twice the content and all the answers but no typos.

Excellent book, but I can't wait for the 6th edition covering Windows 7 and Win 2008 R2.

Any news of roughly when we can expect this? e.g. will it be this year (2010)?

Mark,

I have ordered the book and should have it soon, however, seems like the link for the video made by The Windows marketing team seems to not be up. I am so excited and can't wait to get the book.

@Mark: Firstly thanks for all your fantastic work with sysinternals and related work over the years. You are a fantastic asset to the community.

I don't mean to apply pressure with the 6th edition, but since I am considering purchasing shortly I wondered how far down the path you were to releasing?

"Alex now teaches Windows"

Now I understand why ReactOS development has stalled.

Too bad MSFT does not use all these talents to make better products. Crunching the competition to stay the only one will not survive the crisis.

When you see that TrustLeap *in user-space* is beating IIS *in the kernel* you understand how inefficient MSFT is at developing technologies.

Having spent 20 of my life with Windows, I am just sad.

@dashesy:

From the post:

"However, 99% of the book applies directly to Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, so you can get a jump start while we work on the 6th edition, which will add coverage of these new versions of Windows. We anticipate adding another 75-100 pages of content (and not making any significant changes to existing text) and are shooting to have the book completed by the end of the year."
