As someone that works as a network manager in a secondary school in Norwich I can say that the IT support brach for the schools has a hard enough time with windoze.
Sorry - you've just discovered the M$ lie - Windows was designed to 'protect the user from the operating system'. However you still have to know what your doing - a computer is a tool not a crutch - An operating system will not turn you into a competent network manager any more than a graphics editor will turn you into an artist or a word processor turn me into a coherent writer. If you dont know the fundamentals it aint really gonna help. Tom

Like those RM Machines. Those were too easy to hack :/
Sorry to mention the 'hack' part but then everything should be tested to the limit to improve security. City College Norwich was (or is?) still a hacking ground. I have seen a lot of changes in their security policy but didn't stop them from install IIS etc :/
