I'm now a Microsoft Certified Professional - Sounds good don't it!!!
Now onto the 70-290....
Sweet! Are you going the 2003 server route? I plan on going that way but with Vista instead of XP
I plan on going that way but with Vista instead of XP
Yes, i just completed my 2003 MCSE. I'll do the vist a upgrades, but i'm glad i did the xp course
remember LOTS of businesses are refusing to upgrade to vista and many companies are on server 2003 still or even previous, was talking to a company the other day still on an NT4 Domain, i was like, wtf? but they have no reason to upgrade, what they have works thats all they care.
Congrats... I think I will start getting certs within the next year, maybe over summer.
cool, shout me if you need any help/advice

Now see, I refrained from being horrible about it. I work as an 'IT Repair Technician', full time, and I don't have a M$ cert. I will however, by the end of the month, have the A+, Network+, and A+ Remote support Technician certifications. Huzzah. Yeah, i just got a job as a IT Tech in a school, the certs are for my own progression really, i wanted a fast way to learn the details, certs was it, and it looks good on a CV for future employers. I already have my A+ & N+, unfortunately with them i didnt learn anything i would class as overly useful. i was already pretty competent in repairing computer hardware and software and basic networking, and alot of the A+ & N+ i found to be OTT technical in how things actually work but not in a way that could be put to much use. Things like, I now know how memory addressing works, but the likelihood of me able having the facilities to repair a problem of this sort is zero, if it fails you buy a new component. The things i have learnt on the Microsoft cert has been far more useful.

Interesting, I heard pretty much the opposite. As a techie, you pick up an awful lot about the way the operating systems work, know where to find tasty morsels, etc.
With networking, I have a limited knowedge, purely because I don't often work out subnets, or work out in which layer certain actions take place.
:P We'll see.
Anyway, yeah - congratulations on yet another cert.
What job?
