You was and IS my IT father - I cannot explain it better. You took from zero level where I had no idea about ANYTHING and could not grasp it enough from books, you just raised me from that level somewhere where now I do understand the books, the other sources, etc. Thank you! You are truly amazing and what you do is the kindest and best thing in the world.

Eli is the best tutor on internet. Not even paid tutorials explain things as Eli does...
Thank You, Thank You THANK YOU THANK YOU Eli, you are the best

I enjoyed learning from you, Eli. You were hilarious when you mentioned " DON'T DON'T DON'T DON'T touch any key when it reboots" LMAO !!! I've been in this profession for a real long time and I'm just recertifying myself after 14 years. Your method is so basic and simple that it's impossible not to understand you. You ARE TOO GOOD. Keep it up and god speed. Thank you so much for spending your wife's time with us :D

Dude. You are the best at giving people the truth about technologies and processes. It's a real time saver and relaxes my nerves. Thanks bro.

Great Job Eli, extremely informative although I wish you had "numbered" your videos so that we could follow along in sequence. :) 

[kawshiksark]

You are a big inspiration to youth in my country. I work a territory manager for cisco and I train all my team members through your video tutorials. You are the best man. Would love to meet you one day in person. For me that would be like taking a picture with Barack Obama..

[mrslyn]

You're the coolest Eli!!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[brandonfarfan]

Thanks alot for this tut dude.
Especially for this part 15:29 secs. where you made it clear
not to press any key, during the reboot process, when the
"if you want to boot off cd, " text comes up.

Attention!!
I went through many hours furiously trying to figure out why I couldn't get my server connected to my "lab" router. It turned out I had to set the network adapter in Virtualbox to *"bridged"* and *not NAT* (which is the default setting). Just thought someone else was struggling with the same issue. ;)

my computer guy, the explanation was very easy to understand. i just got lost on which video to see first and which is next o next. but overall im using your video as my guide. thank you very much

[dokpaphosa]

[abdulmajid]

Thank you Computer Guy!
Your the MAN!

[waterdamagerestoration]

I love your videos! :) <3 Keep'em coming! :)

[elithecomputerguy]

virtualization within virtualization...? I can't say it won't work, but I also think it's adding complexity that is sure to cause problems...

[khalidnodanna]

Eli the Emphasize Guy, do not Do Not DO NOT... 15:30 so funny. Great work, I really admire your channel :)

[AmbienceSoundNetwork]

Found your video helpful. What steps would you need to do to install it right to a new pc? What trialware would you need to download this? Don't want to set up Virtual machine when I have 2 extra pc's sitting here.

Looking forward to following this series and I think I badly need it as I'm pretty clueless about MS servers. Currently I run all my services (mail, web, sql, plex, shares, ftp etc) off one Win 10 machine but now I'm planning on setting up a ESXi system with separate servers for different tasks, maybe use vlans where appropriate and some proper managing of it all. I have absolutely no clue what I will need, how to go about it all etc though so I will learn as I go. First step I think is getting the center of the hub going in the form of a Windows server (Maybe I should go 2016 instead?)
