This is my personal opinion, so please take as such.

MCSE, MCSE MC....

are bunch of crap. People are promised great
careers just because they take the cert. It is not
true. These people are not skilled enough to do
most of the sys admin stuff.

The only thing those are good for is if you
have ton of experience and some employer is
deep into MS(hit) and He/She is willing to
pay you extra money for holding the cert.

Otherwise it is useless.

I hear these commercials
on the radio about how great you career is going to
take off after you certified. Bunch of lies.
They will take you 1200.00 and give you a useless
papaer.

Save the money and take some classes at the ASU or
other college.

Greg

Since nobody listened and posted all the messages to the list, I wanted to
reply to a few of them:

1) I currently work as a Technician at a computer company, so my hands are
always on the insides of computers, etc. I also run the linux server for
my company. Theres just 6 people in the company, but they were going to
pay $250 or whatever for WINGATE To run on NT, and I talked them into just
doing it with Linux for free..

2) I plan on getting a degree, but should I get a Microsoft Certified
degree? Will that be useless in the future? I heard Cisco is pretty hot
right now..

Cheers,
Tyler Hall
