Yeah, we missed you, Niece - still no books yet ???

 

Peed off now. Phoned this morning and told they were still there. She was really nice though and said she would see if there was any way I could get them sooner. Got an email after a few minutes and they will only get here on Thursday, so it's going to be a long week.

Have to find something else to do till then.........

 

Well, hang out in here in the meantime - you know you're welcome :P

Are you going to be doing the A+ ? If so, then why not go look at www.comptia.org (I think - just Google it)

Check out as much background info on the subject as you can, look back in the Nitlc Forums, ask questions in here ....

Just make sure you stay on the boil to Thursay - you're gonna have plenty to do from then on

 

I know I am and thanks. You've all made me very welcome.

Not doing anything as interesting as A+ yet. Getting first three modules and it's only intro to PCs, windows and internet intorduction and a bit of Microcomputer hardware. Only go onto A+ at module 6.

Love to do a bit of background, but I think it might all look alien to me at the moment.

Will be busy on when they get here. Just want to get going..........

Denise......

 

Boots? I'd always pictured him as a "loafers" man.

You haven't lived until you've ripped (gently, of course) into the guts of a PC. Of course, the real action IMHO is actually networking the things. What's your ultimate goal in doing all this, neice? Also, just to clarify something for we folks in the American Northwest...what the heck is a "module"?

 

A module is a section of the course your currently studying, the course is broken down into modules, as you complete one module it gives you the knowledge needed to move onto the next module,

Hope that helps

 

...or to put it another way, a pain-in-the-*rse/*ss book you need to get through before you hit the books that actually lead up to the exams

(Please note - built-in Transatlantic dual-version phrasing tool used here :P )

 

Is this then different than a "class"? That is, in a US university, I'd have to pass Whatever 101 before I could go on and sign up for Whatever 102. In a semester system, each class is 16 weeks. In my IT program, each class met five days a week for four hours a day (included labs) for four weeks. That "equaled" the amount of class time you'd get in a standard semester. In 16 weeks, we'd cover four standard classes...just one at a time rather than four classes running concurrently.

 

Hi Neice

Soooo glad to have female company in here! Hope that you are finding your way around ok and that Jakamoko isn't harassing you too much!!!

Hear your course materials reach you tomorrow - Let us know how you get on with them and good luck!

 

I am trying to get a pic of my boots as my avatar!!!!

 

Please don't smoothie. Don't think my stomach could take it........

 

Hi Rosy and thanks for the welcome......... Seems to be over run by men in here doesn't it. Hope I can cope... They are all being very nice, even jakamoko.

Tripwire..... I had no idea what a module was till a couple of weeks ago. Glad someone else explained it to you.

Hopefully, my modules will be here tomorrow....... Typical though..... Have a busy weekend lined up.............

 

Heeey, Come on now, I don't deserve all this bad press I'm a nice guy really - even about to let the young Toto play on the Singing Kettle website :P

So come on, all - give a Jaka a break
(yeah, right - till next time )

 

Were sorry Jakamoko these are for you

 

Ahhhhhh. Being getting the violin out next.... Only kiddin'. Honest....... I'm sure you are really lovely..........

Neice........

Well done, guys - nice touch :P Best not let the Missus J catch sight of those

You all know I've got a much thicker skin than that anyway
