Well, I've just read the Chapter 1 of Professional XML. I don't think it is time well spent. Afterall, I passed 140. Is there something to read that is more focused on passing the exam?
BTW, to me, the spec is just too abstract to be practical for exam study. Well, of course, unless each question has a choice of "A. See spec for detail.".

Lee,
I don't like "XML professional" too. I thint this book is not up to date and explanations are not consice. Also, I don't like "Inside XML" that is more closed to Micosoft tools.
IMO, "XML Bible" and "XML in a Nutshell" are much better and JavaRanch XML link page is the best option to start preparing for the IBM exam.

Thanks for the link. Interesting enough, chapters from the links are much better written than the rest of the book, for some.
