After that, I have to work on getting Win 3.0 to work better in my DeskPro window. ________________________________ From: Steven M.

Wasn't like that when I took it either back in '99. Sheesh. Of course back then they also covered 8 bit vs 16 bit ISA, IRQ, and DMA... Jonathan L.

He was very disappointed in the test. It seems that it deals more now with IT professionalism than technical expertise. An example question he gave me was, " You are working in a company's Payroll department and notice some confidential papers on the desk. What do you do?" It wasn't like that when I took it.

I started with A+, Network+, and I-Net+ just to get some (relatively) easy letters after my name. That was a few years ago, and hopefully the A+ exam in particular has changed. I had been building and repairing computers for years when I took it, but still had to study a fair amount because I found that the exam wasn't quite aligned with the real world. Which I guess can be said of most exams.

With 15+ years, you should be looking at more advanced certification.

Just looking into maybe getting a few. There's a "whiff" of outsourcing in the air. And, at my age, getting another IT job won't be easy. > From: jra...@eaglemds.com > To: ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com > Date: Sun, 28 Feb 2010 22:50:16 -0500 > Subject: RE: CompTIA certs > > +1 They are (and should be) easy compared to a Cisco or M$ cert; as Erik stated, they are good for a baseline. Also, keep in mind that since CompTIA is vendor-neutral, they can't go to the granularity that a vendor specific exam tends to cover. > NOTICE: Florida has a broad public records law.
