    im "doing" computer science... but no knowledge of it....

    Ah right. Know anything about server administration?

    I've been recommended by a third party for this course:
    http://www.dorset-college.ie/Computing/courses/course_details/?rid=3&cid=34
    Basically i went to a local guidance counsellor and told her i wouldnt mind doing comptia as i heard it was pretty well recognised. She said theres a course 'like' the details in this one but not exactly the same.

    I'd love to be able to get a proper cert instead of just my ECDL and MOS but dont want to go diving into something that i may not get a job out of or be in over my head.

    Punked, if this is your first 'proper' cert in IT, Comptia A+ then Network + would be the way to start imo.

    BTW send me a Pm if you have anymore q's or need advice.

    Real just won La Liga Whoopdie do. Ronaldo & Messi i'd say will end the league with 80 goals a piece which says it all about the whole thing.
    But Juve drew tonite gwan Juve please trip up before the finishing line.

    Had wisdom teeth removed today ouch! btw but seeing Ciano316's sign dead centre between Rock & Cena in Power Slam made me smile again.

    Fair play to Reina for the goal could he at least pretend to give a fúck anymore he is like footballs Samoa Joe btw how mediocre (read shìt)are liverpool's midfield. Espn are saying we should bring on Carroll time to watch the part of Smackdown I missed, bringing on a guy who has no upside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,391 ✭✭✭D2D


    Carroll played a blinder, should've started from the start. Still, fair play to Chelsea on winning it :(

    I didn't even bother watching the 2nd half we were such a laughing stock in the 1st half, a total dated lightweight joke. Besides winning the Carling Cup our season has been a total farce & biggest problem is we spent a bomb & bought a load of crap. I wouldn't blame the owners if they told us to F**k off regarding funds in the summer.

    I'd rather get fisted by Wlad Klitschko than hear the forthcumming (Yes I am funny, I know) debates on video replaying.

    Could do without hearing Ukraine's sex habits but Goal line technology has nothing to do with the lack of quality that the likes of Henderson, Spearing & others have. I say that as a fan of liverpool & a Milan fan(even if we were on the wrong end of a nailed on goal vs Juve).
