into high end networking I
think, and become a network architect for someone like CISCO or NORTEL -
they get stupid money. And it is artistic - you design and see the future of
the business client and stroke the brush on how they'll expand and use it.
The art is today's design with the future in mind.
Some insights: *everything* is going to be about networks in the future
where business is concerned. Video Security, visual entertainment,
audio/audio control, data, phones, fire alarms, smoke detectors, remote
users.... it's all network capable these days.With the advances in storage,
CPU power and 10GBit network speeds here today, it will only get bigger and
the cool thing is that the fiber in the ground is still good as speeds push
upwards for some time. IMO that means switches/fiber equipment is gonna be
the demand, and labor on how to design it/impliment it.
OS and computer type are a fading memory, it's all gonna be about (wired and
wireless) internet/intranet. Believe me on this. Take that CLWMC or GC gig
if you need to but study at night. If it's about networking, learn the 7 OSI
layers, understand the IP / Subnet mask relationship, learn the ins and outs
for secured network structure especially in the wireless field.

>Gantt,
I made the jump about 15 years ago and then stayed in it (Tech) when I
was thinking about bailing a few years back (thank God for the medical
insurance when the medical bills piled up on my son the following year).
Went from being a frontline geek to a Director of Technology to now
havine a consuting practice for small business and technology. Along
the way I've been able to hire a half dozen of my musicians friends who
are still in the tech industry and play some on weekends. It doesn't
meet our original dreams of playing for a living, our skills sometimes
really wane, but when we play, it's play! And any one of us makes more
than we all did with our dead end jobs and gigs combined.

ROTFL!!! Maybe we could get NAMBLA to sponsor someone?
;o)sorry lamont., I cant prove it either way.(my $100,000. estimate).
I can say that i knew early on that digi was way too much money for the
bang.
I couldnt even burn a CD without shelling out $1000 for their burning
software( i forget the name of it,but the price im sure of)
thank heavens paris came along.sad that it didnt catch on
for the long haul.
here is digi's response ,if anyone really cares about this
Hi Alex - Your question is challenging and I appreciate your asking.
Unfortunately there is no way we can possibly answer it. The only
exchange we ever had from AM II was to AM III with Pro Tools software
with DAE powermix back in 1996 for $995, both products have long since
been discontinued. Since then there have been multiple exchanges with
multiple options so there is no telling what direction you might have
gone. Ultimately you probably would have spent more in the long run
upgrading along the way but you would have recouped much if not all of
the value of your purchase in using your system as the Technology
progressed over the past 14 years. We do not distribute legacy
pricelists but for a current exchange price list please see

I hope that helps!
