    I am a long time IT geek. I have also had a pretty good gaming PC. even now, my PC is a P4 3.0 /w ATI 256 ram video and 1 Gb ram PC....

    its more of the time, i have for games now. and the fact the a console is a little bit more relaxing sitting back on my recliner and bigscreen. :)

    I have also played computer games and console games, altho PC games have always been more so, I just think now with consoles and a nice chair its more relaxing.

    How many of you play less "PC games" then you used to and now play "mostly" a console. I was thinking,

    when i was younger and less gainfully employed I was a gaming freak. now that I am a little older I have far less time for games but: I love my xbox :)

    so Most of my gaming "fix" i get on my xbox. there i can be comfortable in my chair and se the action on my bigscreen. :)

    as I thought about it, i play far less "PC games" now and when i do play a game it tends to be a console.

    What is the Best Fire Wall for and ISP?

    Cisco Pix is the way to go if you can, sonic wall is not bad i have intsalled it for a few clients and it works pretty good and the prices are not to bad.

    if you are really pressed for cash and need free, enterpirse class FW like I said above openBSD with pf or linux with iptables, tho its pretty hairy to setup if you are not into *nix(Unix and or linuxs)

    is this for a small network? or for an ISP, that provides dsl,dial up etc?

    I sonicwall is pretty decent firewall, depending on what you really want. and how many users, how much traffic etc are all factors.

    if your inclined openBSD with PF or Linux with iptables is pretty cheap, tho not easy to setup. and both can handle pretty advanced configs and heavy traffic.

    money no object cisco pix, is pretty good :)

    wow, i used to do alot of consulting. (I have a full time gig now and don't have the time)

    I broke it down acording to what i was doing like so:

    basic workstation stuff: 50$ hour

    workstation work with networking or advanced trouble shooting: 75$ hour

    servers/networking:125$

    security/programing:150$

    for house calls to normal people sometime i do a favor for 25 an hour for basic PC work.

    but i did mostly companys and the like...

    A+ Certification

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Nex6

    Certifactions do help, becuase its very hard for an employer to know what skills people have etc. so the 2 ways they have are:

    experence and certs.

    and having Certs never hurt anyone, all they can do is help. and the A+ is a good first one to get, once you pass that one consider getting one or two more and then just work on building experence.
