I just loaded up some extra hard drive space on the secondary Unity server we had and a way I went. If I wasn't able to get that server I was just gonna build a $500 PC and call it a day. Really the $500 PC would be a lot faster than the MCS but you can't beat a free server lol.

I'm using the Fourth Edition version of "Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Voice over IP and QoS (CVOICE)" by Kevin Wallace which covers the newest CCNP: Voice cert.<br /><br /> Really I just recommend getting the $10 a month online book subscription at Safari.com and go through the reading material that way along with the Cisco SRND's and etc if needed.
