  1. A good start would be to learn everything Linux. If you don't mind spending a bit of money you should buy some books off of Amazon, Certified Ethical Hacking, Pentesing books, Offensive Security PWB, etc etc. Just read as much as you can. Then if you actually wanted to make a career out of it you can take a exam through an organization called the EC Council for C|EH which stands for Certified Ethical Hacking, then you can take a course with then which is Advanced Penetration Testing. But my suggestion is to learn everything you can about Linux, weather it be Ubuntu or BackTrack Linux, just get real comfortable with the command line.

  2. I remember watching my Uncle Jeff (now Aunt Jennifer...for real) show me how to get free phone calls when I was around 7.

    I was 10 yrs old when I started to use paper clips to get free phone calls, and I remember going to a local electronic store to get a mic that would plug into a hand held tape recorder so I could record the tones quarters would make. Wow that really takes me back. My first hack was war dialing for a few hours for days on end before I actually got modem breath. It was the modem of a local library that wasn't password protected. I snooped around for a bit but all I could really get access to at the time was an employee BBS that had menus for lunch and schedules. For years I would randomly call that number from a lan line just to see if it was still active. After broadband DSL started the phone number stayed active for a bout a year before it went dead. To this day I still remember the number.

  3. Been dedicated to the iPhone for the past few year but I'm becoming more and more interested in jumping ship over to Android, seeing that there's much more interesting hacks/mods available.

    Which phone would you recommend?

  4. I haven't seen one in a long time. I remember when we had a couple posted outside the doors to my high school, before cell phones were so common. Needed a ride, call collect, and at say your name.. "hey mom, I need a ride".

    Haha, I remember doing this all the time. Just to let my mom know where I was or if I was coming home. I remember buying a phone number from on of the kids at school for 5 dollars and you could actually put your quarter in and dial the 7 digits and get a dial tone, then you could call the actually phone number you were calling and now matter what, when you hung up you got your money back. I think of that every time I see a pay phone these days.

  5. I have the 036NHA and I can confirm that it works, plug and play, in both Ubuntu and BT5 VM.

    Agreed, I've used the 036NHA in both Windows and BT5R3 VM's with plug and play action, no issues. Also works with Kismac for OS X.
