Business Software Alliance? Aren't these the hired henchmen from Microsoft who caused such a stink with licensing? As for certifying IT technicians, see past archive for threads about paper certs not being worth squat due to way they're taught (via braindump) and then of course there's vendor bias. However, there are definitely folks out there masquerading as IT professionals who really aren't as qualified as they should be. Not sure if that's why you have so many blown/busted projects, though....because those are usually from HUGE IT companies who certainly would only hire talented staff (...right?). -- Mike Babcock, MCP MB Software Solutions, LLC President, Chief Software Architect http://mbsoftwaresolutions.com http://fabmate.com http://twitter.com/mbabcock16 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
