What field in computers is best for me?

September 28, 2009

ok I am having trouble figuring out what computer field is best for me? Here’s what i’d like to do:

– computer repair (hardware repair, replacement, installation, and software install/useage, ect) similar to that of a technical support specialist/computer repair specialist
– networking
– problem solving/diagnostic work (cleaning out viruses, finding out why something isn’t working, ect.)
– security (making sure systems are secure, ect)

Personally I like repairing computers and the problem solving…but i didn’t like the sound of a computer repair specialist or comp. technician due to the low salary compared to other computer careers. I wasn’t sure if an IT specialist would exactly cover the majority of this.

Plz help me!! What computer career would be good for me!

I’ve read so much about registry cleaners but still clueless if its good or bad on my PC. What is it actually?

June 23, 2009

I've read a number of articles from PC World to Computer Hope extolling the necessity of using registry cleaners which carry the names as 'Registry Cleaners', EasyCleaners', 'RegistryOrganizers', 'RegCure', among other names. However, when I came across a book (McGraw Hill Osborne) entitled "The Healthy PC" by Carey Holzman, a PC Repair Specialist of 15 years, it stated (Chapter 12, p.195) that these are softwares to avoid. The reason is simply that based on his years of experiance, they create more problems than it solve. He compared it to putting a band aid to a gapping wound.
