AMEN. I pulled those concepts books out of the box and laughed. Havent touched them since. he he try installing on UNIX. That's r e a l fun.

[Quoted] I disagree on the training bit though. I know guys who went to training and are idiots. That's because they can't learn regardless. I know training is the best way but I think if you have the patience you can get pretty good doing whatever. It's like technology .... the more you learn on your own, the faster you learn on your own next time. ;)
