    Quite a few, sadly none of them helped getting hot chicks.

    The rugged good looks did that for me :)

    Any IT problem...... Just turn your computer on and off again... This is standard iT advice. You will get charged handsomely for it as well.

    Bargain.

    I'm terrible with computers and technology. I use my computer for e-mail and fluting about on the internet.

    I know shag all about about any of the microsoft office packages either.

    My IT knowledge is confined to Ctrl-Alt-Delete being the answer to all problems

    I have intermediate level Excel.
    Handy for calculating numbers. I love numbers. Chicks use numbers, though not mine.

    Not trying to be racist either but you will generally find Indian IT workers to be very much better than their Irish counterparts. Just saying.......

    I don't have any qualifications in IT
    I'm only qualified to prepare chicken at KFC and I'm happy enough with that at the moment
    I'll leave all the IT stuff to the computer nerds

    Is this a bannable/racist offense for me? I don't know, I've had too much wine. I guess time will tell!

    I remember computers when they were 16 bit (8 bit I/O) and had hex keyboards!
    8088 chips ftw, press enter and wait.......

    PS, Cisco certs are great for connecting them together but not a lot of good if you work on the servers.

    I just want all the dull insufferable people of society descend into these IT studies so I can reap the technological rewards at the end.

    My brother is good with computers and I think he might have loads of stuff downloaded. He is very pale though.

    That's a good question, What IT qualifications would open doors?

    YMCA, probably back doors.

    If you can buy a computer off the internet then you've already got a higher standard of computing knowledge than ECDL.

    Depends on which part of the IT sector you want to go into, web application development is big these days.
