I just passed ITIL Foundation v3 training.
It’s pretty simple and straight-forward.
To a geek minds, it also gives a lot of pleasure to see your built-in sense for “the right thing”, all the rules you always felt and applied, to be clearly written down and structured by some organisation. Very nice experience.
And the HP Race to Results simulation game is excellent!
I just passed 70-680 – Windows 7, Configuring.
I got a free exam voucher from a local training facility and just went to take the exam. Unfortunately, all server exams were already booked, so I took a client one – not that I have anything to do with client OSes in my work. I got 100% on all the “server-like” functionalities (backups, permissions, security, network configuration) and a bit lower scores on the other – but the results is – another exam passed, for free this time.
Long live free vouchers!
By passing 70-291 I became MCSA. That’s quite odd, I thought I need 4 exams, not just 3, but Microsoft says different so I won’t argue.
Hey, nothing better than a good surprise gift for Saint Nicholas day.
I passed 70-291. It wasn’t that hard, a lot easier than what I heard about it.
I failed completely at RRAS, on the other hand I got 100% points at IP addressing and maintaining infrastruture – seems it’s a good measure of what I really do / know.
Today, maybe as a gift on the occasion of SysAdmin day 2009, I got a letter from the court. It officially states that “Jakub Anderwald – Yet Another Tech Blog” is a state registered magazine.
Basically, I am now a publisher and chief editor of a magazine – on the same level as country-wide magazines like Top Gear, or Playboy, except that I publish only on Internet, not on paper.
If you’re Polish, you probably know, this is an effect of a curious court decision, where, among other lines, it said that “a website is a magazine according to polish law and must be registered”. It has been widely discussed 2 years ago, mostly ignored in reality, but a couple of freaks found it to be a nice and funny way of promoting their websites – and here I am.
The same law also says that publishing a magazine without registration is a crime – so beware, all other Polish websites ;)
Here’s the court statement (in Polish, though)
