    Well what made you think that I am spammer. I Recently graduated as B.E. Information Technology student and trying power myself with the knowledge of IT Infrastructure and further taking up MCSE AND SQL Course studies. The post was a huge one and I thought a forum advice is not just enough and felt that discussing this issues with a team of technical experts was an good idea. He needed lots of upgrades on his system. I know you are the author of book on database and a knowledgeable person but you should have corrected or rectified my mistake instead of highlighting me as a spammer.

    hope u understand me.

    Your post came off as "spammy" because it sounded like you weren't adding much to the discussion and looked like you were setting up to sell your own services. Having an MCSE/MCSA is not the end all, be all. Fact is that many certifications have lost their luster due to people just cramming for exam just to pass them and add the alphabet soup to their resumes. All a certification shows is that you were willing to study and complete something.

    I'm an experienced consultant and administrator, a SQL Server MVP, and an author. My opinion and expertise is based on experience. That being said, I'm not certified on any platform (Hyper-V or VMware). In fact I only have one cert that I passed earlier in my career just to get a raise. Does that mean my input/advice is worth any less than someone who just graduated from college and got an MCSE/MCSA? Just some food for thought.
