Retired at age 55 from my former job as I.T. Administrator for a large labor organization. Currently just doing some independent computer consulting and supporting clients using GoToAssist. I have an old and dusty MCSE for Windows NT4 and MCSAs on Windows 2k and 2k3 servers which are both becomming older and dustier. I had a CCNA from Cisco, which I let expire in 2003 since no one I know or worked for was using much in the way of Cisco equpment except some PIX boxes, which I still support sometime. Currently running Windows 8 RTM, 2k8r2 server, with Windows 7 32 and 64 bit clients as well as tried and true XP pro. Enjoying Windows 7 and 8 and helping where I can.
