Computers & Internet - 13 December 2007

I am currently going to school to get my BA in Information Systems Security (ISS). My question was what job title's should I be searching for so I can get started in my career. Like what job should i look for that is going to give me the experience I need.

I tried searching jobs for ISS but they all require a min. of 5 yrs experience in the job....so im like.."How do start off to get that experience??"

What job titles should I be searching for (to get the experience) so later on I can get a job as a Security Systems Engineer or that sort of higher paying jobs?

I got this friend who no matter what always says he’s right even when he knows he’s wrong he never admits it or has anything nice to say. Anyways he’s copying me and getting the same computer setup I have even though up until now he’s been telling me I was stupid for getting a computer that can run a 64bit OP with 8 gigs of ram and that vista sucks because soon its going to be 128bit OPs and ill still be behind and XP is still much better. now he’s getting the same setup as I am but with a little more processing speed cuz he always has to have the better computer, anyways he says he’s gona put his OP on a separate partition and only allocate enough for the OS I told him he has to have his program files on the same partition. Who’s right and who’s wrong?

I saw one online that I'm interested in, but have questions. Do they come with an ac adapter? Can I hook up my printer to it easily? Can I use my current cordless optical mouse with it? How long does a 6 cell, 8 cell, and 12 cell batter last? Any help is appreciated before I make my final decision.

I am going to buy this Gateway Desktop tonight http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=pcmprd81600050012&skuId=999981700050012&type=product&count=0
and it says
Video Memory: 256MB (dedicated)
My first question is how important is video memory and will it even be a problem if I'm playing games such as WoW, Call of Duty 4, etc?
And what does dedicated actually mean, does it mean i cannot remove it at all or upgrade it or what?

I'm debating whether to get a 14 or 15 inch wxga hd widescreen display with a resolution of 1280 x 800. My questions is will the quality of videos and/or pics look better on the 14 vs the 15 or does it not really make that big of a difference (all other specs being the same)? Thanks

A couple of days ago my computer got infected by a virus. I did a bunch of cleaning things, etc, but now, a few problems remain that I can't get rid of!
1) Sometimes, as I open and close the internet browser, everything (all icons and the blue taskbar at the bottom) disappears and then reappear a few seconds later. This is getting extrmely annoying.

2) My system restore cannot go back to previous months anymore.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
