Donate it, write it off on your taxes

That's way too high, but it depends a lot on where you live (and experience level). Network Admins that I've known typically make 30-50k / year for a network as small as 100 computers. Network Admins at very large corporations (like Coca-Cola or something) can make more, in the 50-80k range, but you need experience, and you're dealing with a much more sophisticated infrastructure. It's very easy to outsource a lot of administrative functions these days, so keep that in mind when searching for a job and negotiating salary.

I'm going to have to go with Netweaver Development Studio...

iPhone and Droid phones are for noobs. Blackberry is where it's at. Preferrably one of the old HUUUUGE ones. And get a belt strap too, so you look like a tool.

Honestly, I think that a traditional education is going to provide the most value. Studying something like computer science is probably the best way to go because it opens more doors and give your the skills that you truly need to understand how computers work on a fundamental level, which of course is necessary if you want to do any sort of reverse engineering or bug hunting. Certs are worthless. That being said, I dropped out of school, so my advice is pretty useless.

Ambien works better

Fuck Limewire, I buy CDs!

The US is too big to see it all and enjoy it in a small amount of time. If you're going to be on the east coast you gotta hit up NYC, Philly, and D.C. On the west coast San Francisco / Silicon Valley, L.A., Las Vegas. If you get a chance to explore I'd recommend New Orleans and Austin. I make a point of going to Miami every year at least once, it's very difficult to have a bad time there.

I think it depends on the size of the company. For smaller to mid-sized companies it's more economical to hire internally. But these days all the large companies are outsourcing the IT department. Even if the service isn't as good, it makes sense economically, and they have someone to point the finger at

Moved to ATL a month or two back, anyone in the area?
