| Yeah right-
There's always some pundit or another predicting bench techs demise every
four years or so. You should have heard the hollering when PnP was invented.
As long as there are idiot users and priceless data, theres always a place
for bench techs.
But his is right about the A+. It must continue to evolve. It will.

Why do the users have to be idiots? If it weren't for the users there wouldn't
be a computer industry. No computer industry no techs and no Mike Myers books.
Kinda like the Pro Ball player insulting the fans. I don't think I will buy any
books from someone who thinks users are idiots. I guess if it wan't for idiot
patients there would be no doctors. If it wan't for the idiot techs that repair
the idiot users computers there would be no need for IT books written by idiot
authors.
