Vista killed your scanner? and XP is what ME should have been? WTF are you talking about, how did an OS kill a scanner? And ME was 98 all dressed up, XP and ME are in no way related other than both being MS products, did you forget about 2000? I run Vista64 at work, Vista on my PC and laptop at home and it's the best OS I have ever used. I work as a systems administrator in a department with 20 other admins 6 of us run Vista64 and no one considered changing back to XP. I see a lot of post of people railing on Vista, but I wonder how many of those people spent the time to learn the differences. If I gave up on something just because it was frustrating learning something new, I would hate Linux and would still be using DOS.
I have a 'Diploma" in Computer Technology from a two year technology school (whatever that's worth) and about 3 years in the field experience, recently I landed a job as a Network Admin in the home office for a large corporation. So it is possible, previously I worked for a small to medium business as a Network Admin (which means doing everything). And before that right out of tech school I worked for a small shop starting off working the bench and moved up to on-site an servers. There are some places that won't hire me because I lack a 4 yr degree but most are interested in experience, so be willing to do what it takes to get some.
