there are so many computer jobs... such a huge selection what one do you want to get into?

Anything with linux.

im already into it... im a web designer. but i want to get involved with computer animation.... or 3d specialist! i think its fun! and challenging!!! =) i hope so... sooN!!!

im doing it too, Network Administration
I get to work with Linux too, Redhat 9 running on a server for data storage. just that one tho the rest are windows based

I might will try to study computer science, but I don't know yet. I think if I try then I would choose software or something with design, like designing or programming games. This would be fun, like squishybear said.
The point is that everything with design, creativity and so one (I mean jobs which have to deal with for example art) is highly underrated and if you get a job you can lose it fast (at least in Germany).

Currently studying for MCSE (microsoft certified Engineer), specialised in security.
Also planning to do some basis ux training and maybe some cisco.
my goal is to be a network security specialist so, I have a lot to do....

i hate it when people who aren't engineers call themselves engineers. Example: MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer).

the MCSE is basically a self study course where you simply pass a few tests. Getting the certification for MCSE is a joke compared to getting an engineering degree.

ya. it does sound better to call your self a systems engineer and add MCSE after your name. But, it's really just a glorified title that isn't justified.

no9t9, it depens on what you define under an "engineer", I'm not going to depate on, wheter or not, geting a degree or a ms paper is enough to call yourself an engineer, no.
By studying, it isnt possible to give a real status, but nonetheless, If you want to get a job, you do need some sort of certification.
I myself didn't got the opportunity to study informatics on school. I've worked in other markets for years and started working in IT. To get and keep a job in this market i need papers. and msce is a very good basis to do so.
If you can get a college degree in IT, do it, but remember, only getting a degree wont get you through the rest of your career!
Better start on a microsoft or a cisco or a nix or .... certification cause you are going to need it.

that's my 2 cents.

TOOOOO many people want to computer related jobs.. it's really popular. That's why I'm not sure if I want anything to do with it any more. I was wanting to do design and programming or whatever, but what use is that going to be.. not being big headed but that's just going to waste all my other talents... And plus, there are tons of people better than me RIGHT AT THIS MOMENT who are a lot younger.

... too popular..

Design is tooo popular, programming is too too popular... everything is different to know than it was before where you had higher salaries.. now everyone is opting for a computer job... there's loads of people who are being made redundents... even the really talented ones.
