Hi experts,<br />
<br />
I was wondering if anyone could recommend an online resource or book to help me pick up and learn Server 2012 . I have not used 2008 or 2013 but have used 2003. I am looking for the best way to learn server 2012/08 as quickly as possible without having it installed on a machine. <br />
<br />
Thank you
