And just took it again today. How times have changed, all about memorizing which windows app does what as opposed to learning IRQ/memory locations.
You kids don't know how good you have it.  |

If any job posting has those listed that isn't an entry level job I wouldn't even both applying because the people there are most likely fucking morons. |

My A+ was July 1998, if we're keeping score that makes 16 years.

I took it back in '97. There were 3 tests, only 2 were needed for certification. I took the core (general hardware, with some Mac stuff and DOS commands thrown in) and DOS and Windows environments. The third was more Mac related, iirc. System 7 was mainly covered.
