| 1374874 | 2014-05-14 01:05:00 | I found being a desktop tech boring but pretty happy in a sysadmin roll where I get to touch a whole bunch of enterprise technologies. san/lan/wan/ISDN/SIP/vm and pretty much any other fun acronym you can think of ;) | Alex B (15479) | ||
| 1374875 | 2014-05-14 02:11:00 | Being a web designer as far as hardware goes, as long as what I'm using does the trick I'm happy. I get more excitement out of seeing the effect a new frame work scripting package has on the speed of my workflow as most are designed to eliminate the need to write a lot of code. | Webdevguy (17166) | ||

It's when it doesn't that trouble-shooting skills are needed. Hardware is essential, try doing anything without it! Bring back coding in assembly I say and cut the cruft!:devil tee-hee. http://www.menuetos.net/ www.returninfinity.com |

| 1374877 | 2014-05-14 04:54:00 | honestly karmeadave, you are spot on. ita nother reason i want to get a tv card so i can hook up my aging atari 520stfm to modern display and learn to code. while i could use emulators etc theres somethign about using actual hardware that people long ago learned on that appeals to my desire to learn. sure i coudl get a rasberrypi but i assume something like the atari 520stfm has less of a learning curve. troubleshooting skills surpass all other bodies of knowledge in their utility. |

At least inhouse, nothing happens much, enterprise stuff all tends to be much the same, same apps, networks and so on.... Techy stuff, you get a lot of variety, ranging from the cheap awful PCs to awesome state of the art gaming machines. You get a variety of issues too... far more than in corporates. Networks may be smaller but so? |
