This isn't anything new. I went from college to the "real world" about 2 1/2 yrs ago and the same problems were around. I even saw a job posting once asking for 7+ yrs of Win2k experience.;)
My best suggestion is just keep trying. I eventually found a great job that has given me a chance even though I didn't have the "real world" experience. Make sure you read up and learn about these technologies though. There's nothing better than being able to know a technology without ever having used it. Also, take some certifications. they never hurt.
And I can't stress this enough. I did it, most of us have done it. It's a pain in the a$$ but it still looks good on a resume. Help Desks! Hey..you can even move up once you prove yourself.
I have to pay 2.95 a month for AIM just because I want to keep my same username. I unfortunatelly at one time had linked my aim name to my aol screenname. When I went to cancel my AOL account I lost my AIM account because it's SOOOOO difficult to split the two into seperate databases. So I have to pay 2.95 a month now for an AOL account just so I can keep my username.:(
And while you are enjoying that PG e-text why not stop on over at Distributed Proofreaders and help proof some of these e-texts so we can get more into PG. Help is always welcome and we only ask for "a page a day"!

Anyone know what the law is in Florida? Do you have to provide ID to a LEO?
"can't be bothered to check the exact number right now" how about 113 times before? eg: STS-114
I have to agree with this. We use the APC and it's onderful!
