Yeah, I was referring mainly to the choice of still using 2000. I'm not a tech guru or anything, but I at least know that Vista and Windows 7 are still considered too unstable, etc.
Failure is not falling down over and over again. Failure is refusing to get back up.

Vista/7 is way more stable, secure, and easier to manage (from an IS admin pov) than XP/2K. Tech companies migrate a lot faster than business companies though

Just to echo what some people have already said, while A+ does look good on a resume its almost completely useless. The information is irrelevant and outdated (unless they updated it in the last 2 years). I work with someone who has an A+ certification (along with a ton of others) and he is without a doubt the most useless employee in my company.

aka, certs look good on a resume, but they don't prove anything. Actual knowledge is more valuable than a cert.

But isn't the point of a certificate to show that you have proof of experience/knowledge? I'm confused about all this.

A+ cert is pretty basic most ppl that operate a computer for more then 3 hours a day with a week to study could porb get a+ certification it's only good for very low end things. It's not very hard to get but it is a proof that you know atleast that much.

I'm studying for my A+ right now, looking for a career in I.T... I dont know much about computers asides from operating one so I figured it's a good start. Can anyone give feedback on it being a good starting point and if Network+ / CCNA certs would be a good follow-up afterwords?

sorry if i'm derailing your thread and asking advice but it seemed appropriate

Well good luck, but I doubt you will need it.

A+ cert is a good place to start, and not a bad thing to have certainly. It opens up the bottom of the building, which leads to many doors later

IMO this is how certs in IT work in a nutshell:

CompTIA certs will get you interviews for entry level and low level jobs

Microsoft certs will get you interviews for decent jobs
3+ years experience in something that isn't entry level will get you interviews for decent jobs

Cisco certs will get you interviews for good jobs
7+ years Experience will get you interviews for good jobs
