    anyone have CDW problems?

    I know a guy who told me that his company was planning to get rid of Norton Anti-Virus. Then their renewals just suddenly showed up. He does not know how.

    IT Career Dilemma!

    In other words, you felt guilty about leaving this company because this company was underpaying you. I would love to know how you came up with that logic. I'm glad you took the new job.

    IT Career Dilemma!

    How does guilt serve you in this matter? What has your current employer done for you to encourage you to stay? Employers talk about doing things for their employees all the time. What does it mean anyway if you are made a partner? This is a no-brainer. Take the new job.

    Most American techies already knew that outsourcing is overrated. I love seeing it fail. But many would rather pay nothing and get nothing.

    Career changer seeks advice on these 5 areas of IT

    Game development, Internet development, and artifical intelligence will likely be offshored. In many cases, they already have been. I don't really know where there is much work in wireless. Security is a good area. It is unlikely that it will be shipped to foreign countries.

    Do we take the Wikipedia seriously?

    I know what you mean about "reviews" by the competition. I definitely think the bio of Ross Jeffries on Wikipedia is a hatchet job. It mentions that he is teaching and studying things that he isn't studying. I e-mailed Ross about it, and he just thought it was best to ignore it.

    Seven Signs of Non-Competitive States

    I would like to mention another thing that keeps a nation backward and non-competitive. However, if I mention that, some bearded men with white towels on their heads may want to kill me, while at the same time chanting that they believe in peace.

    Do we take the Wikipedia seriously?

    By the way, this particular forum used to have a poll where people could rate software. There would be a smile, frown, and something in between. This has been taken off, for some reason. I remember, for example, that the awful Arcserve software had over 60% frown rating.

    "Purchased" Degrees

    It sounds like yet another case of an employer not investigating the person he hired. I suppose I could make up a degree from something like "Fifth Street University." It's the employer's job to investigate whether or not it is a legitimate. Most people fiddle with their resumes nowadays. They...

    EMC certifications

    Where do I go if I want to take a test? I can't find any information on actually taking the tests.

    Are companies downsizing their IT department?

    Is the answer really "42"?

    "Purchased" Degrees

    Perhaps this person should consider whether or not the person can actually do the work. If he can do it, keep him. If not, don't keep him.

    My view of IT career Opportunity looking at the Bureau of Labor Stats.
