A cheap console, that you can burn any game for, run emulators on, control the operating system, and totally hack apart.....
Console, thy name is DreamCast.
1) Go to a 4-year state school, and get a degree in something that ends with "Engineer". Become an Oracle DBA, learn some java, sql, vb, and asp. Get some experience applying these tools in an industry with high cash flow (banks, energy companies, pharma, etc.)
2) Profit!!!
3) Screw around with video games on your 42" flat-panel TV while sitting on your new red leather couch. Bourgeois isn't bad!
My first slashdot post is a flamebait... (diminished self-esteem)
There are two main advantages to M$ that I see, both as a consultant and as a small company.
Consultant hat: You don't have to explain *nix to clients. They want computers to provide solutions to their problems, and they don't want to do/learn anything new.
Small Business hat: It is easy to build and administer Windows server. You can even build your SQL server relationships in Visio now. It doesn't require much knowledge or effort to configure a workable solution. Not the most high performance or secure solution, but good enough to get the job done.
That being said, if samba allows 30 simultaneous users doing much of anything on a 266mhz box (see previous post), then I can see some real value.
The book is written with special focus towards administrators of Microsoft Windows systems giving them a first insight into the capabilities of Samba and a well guided step by step guide for migrating systems from a Microsoft solution to Samba.

I spent $800 on a pure-bred cat, and you are darn well going to see his picture!
