Don't overlook curiosity, and imagination. And whatever you can dream about, you can bet that the bad guys (who are paid to do their work) are already working on it.

Crespo,
Check out www.retrobox.com for used computers. I have ordered 4 computers off this site at really good prices. If all you need is a box, keyboard, and mouse then this will fit your need. Hope this helps. |

Thank-you for all the replies so far, I appreciate them all. I don't think I do enough of helping other people, more over because I'm afraid of getting stuck. After reading these replies, I realize that without getting stuck you'll go no where as you learn the most when you solve things that are difficult. I just set up a day to go over a friends house to help clean up the PC  . I hope to make that a regular thing, though not that regular, because that would mean they aren't learning anything themselves  . I also want to try posting more here .
I think when ever I get the money I'm going to buy a separate server to fool around with. Hopefully sometime soon, that way I can experience things first hand and see what/how they're doing things.
I'm actually going to school for network security, but I doubt this will be enough as school tends to be outdated and don't teach you everything you need to know.
Thanks again for all the replies, the more the welcome. I'm sure others have thought about this question without asking out loud . |
