| Hi. Im 33 have a wife and three kids and a pretty good
aptitude for computing. I have decided that I would be
happier in an IT field but Im not really sure where to
start. Can anyone recomend a good certification program to
get started on that wont take 3yrs to finish and wont cost
me a fortune?

A good place to state is the CompTIA A+ and Net+ certification, which
can be leveraged as an elective for MCSA.
