There's a crescent by my house called Van Horne Cr. I always think of Valin Horn. Smile

Might want to check these two links out. You can download the software on the right of the page, helped me revising when I did mine last year-

http://www.examcollection.com/220-701.html
http://www.examcollection.com/220-702.html

702 is harder than 701, 702 is more practical-based. Pass mark is a bit higher as well. You'll need to remember lots of random facts/figures that you won't really use again, mainly old Processor types/standards, however you'll be really unlucky if you get asked about them in the exam. Also, take common sense completely out of the equation and put safety first every time. It might not be logically what you'd do in real life, but the exam doesn't work like that unfortunately Sad Obviously it's not 'easy' to pass, but as long as you've got some fairly decent experience behind you and you know what you're doing you'll be fine.

1: you use your star wars mug as a spit-cup for your chewin' tobacca
2: you refer to your car as the 'fastest hunk of junk' on the road
3: you tell your wife to 'Use the force' while she is delivering your child.
4: you have a statue of any SW character in your yard.
5: Yoda is your role model
6: You can debate why Chiss are better than Vulcans
7: You can use quotes from the novels to prove your points to #6

...you meet someone named Winter and exclaim, "Winter like in Star Wars?" Rather than, "Winter, like the season?" It was too late to realize my question went right over their head. I covered with, "Cool name." Smile

You're playing MW3 with Sitrep on, see your teammate go for an enemy airdrop trap and yell "IT'S TRAP" a la Ackbar.

You go out of state and visit Star Cave Park and think "Starcave of ThonBoka!" Then while driving through town you notice a law firm named Hoth.

You work with a guy who's last name is Hutt and ask him if his first name's Jabba.

Alas, it was Gary. Gary the Hutt doesn't have the same ring as Jabba the Hutt.

A collegue of yours has a windowless office and labels their office door "Cell 2187". I've now been inspired that if I get a windowless office I'll label it Cell 1138. Cool

You see an increidbly shaggy, light brown dog with a relatively short muzzle and comment to your friends (who are debating what breed of dog it is) "it's a quadrapedal wookiee"

No problem, congrats on passing Smile Time to start looking for an IT job now you've got that under your belt. You should be able to go for a junior/starter role no problem. Start looking at Microsoft qualifications too if you've got the money. MCTS (Microsoft Certified Technical Specialist) would probably be the place to start. Can get the book from Amazon, it's around £100 ($130-ish?) for the exam and use that website to revise for the exam.
