    Everythings good.
    I'm finally back on track with school, after a semester off to take care of my Dad,
    and I should be getting my Associates in both CIS Programming and CIS Networking this fall.
    Then the tough part of figuring out what to do for my Bachelors...

    Deciding to go back to school, instead of becoming a layed off tech was a wise decision.

    I'm doing BSc. Applied Computing here - consists of Oracle Database Management, Java Enterprise, Enterprise Networking and a couple of other things.

    Make a list of stuff you want to learn at degree level - maybe with an eye on the best paying jobs - then go looking for a degree that has most of those components.

    Hi all,
    just an update,
    I graduated school, and got a job right away.
    I'm in charge of one locations PC Repair dept,
    for a rapidly growing networking company.
    I work with residential clients and the network techs on
    stuff they can't repair on-site.

    So far, so good.
    But I miss coding.

    Mags

    Hello, I found this forum when I knackered my PC's recognition of my digital camera (by installing Windows Backup from XP) .. never had so much fun since! Have learnt a lot .. but have yet to do a complete reinstall of this PC .. and have ordered a laptop in between.

    I used to be an Analyst Programmer in the dark days before Windows, wouldn't know what to do with a pop-up button!

    Am now happily retired .. enjoy meals out with friends, walking, photography, write poetry, look after my website.

    I'm a bit curious .. not complaining, but no-one's said hello here, although I've had loads of support on other threads.

    Am I in the wrong place?

    Should I be working to make use of this forum? I thought the forum was for anyone with computer problems/news?

    Ohh .. hmm?

    The folks who do most of the answering, tend to hang about in the 'technical bits', lurking for folks 'in distress' & generally settle for 'welcome to windrivers' on any first post, & its only when we get really really bored , that places like this get looked at

    But welcome aboard m'hearty, its nice to see someone 'old' here, as well as me !
