But having A+ or computer science does make you good technician only how many job and how long you technician.
I go to some computer stores and talk to people that have A+ and its like talking to a dork than other computer store that have A+ its more like talking to computer geek!!Well its only 2,000 pages and 6 months in school to get A+ !! I look at computer science web site http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761563863/Computer_Science.html Well it talks about softwar,hardware,programing,engineering ,mathematics ,What is computer,How computers can help Scientists/engineers ,How computer do calculations,programs,operating systems, computer interface , computer designs,networks, so on see blow >some cases, a computer scientist develops a theory, then engineers a >combination of computer hardware and software based on that theory, >and experimentally tests it >Computer science can be divided into four main fields: software >development, computer architecture (hardware), human-computer >interfacing (the design of the most efficient ways for humans to use >computers), and artificial intelligence (the attempt to make >computers behave intelligently). Software development is concerned >with creating computer programs that perform efficiently. Computer >architecture is concerned with developing optimal hardware for >specific computational needs. The areas of artificial intelligence (AI) and human-computer interfacing often involve the development of >both software and hardware to solve specific problems. Well it looks like computer science is way more information than A+!! But working at computer store and being computer tech is low in paying job like going to be pluming,parks,bus driver !! Most people that go college or university that take computers do not want to work at computer store or being computer tech but do some thing with the education. I know man that is MSCE, and I have see many, yes thay know there stuff but when comes techy stuff its like being dork!! Well I should say I have talk to some people at computer store or some people are computer geek with no training or schooling and very good at tecky stuff . So by looking at that web sites computer science is science on computers as A+ is PC's only !! In other words some one that takes computer science can engineer a computer interface for F-16 fighter plane with A+ you cannont do this!! Or some that takes computer science can engineer softwar for space probes goinng to Mars .Remeber computers is more than PC's you know there are computers in Cars,planes so om Okay so computer science does do PC's but other computers and softwar and hardware too!!So I gussing if I take computer science you can say to the teacher PC's only . In that web sites it is saying softwar and hardware I'm gussing it is talking about softwar and hardware in PC' too ,and is saying interface like OS, I'm gussing it is talking about windows 3x,9x,200,XP.DOS,Server 2003,NT so on --- In [email protected], Homer Loner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > HI Matt: > Your goals fit the A+ program better than computer > science.
