Description

Learning how to implement one of the many slices in the information technology pie is one thing but learning how to survive in today's digital corporate environment is something often taken for granted by computer professionals. 2004 Almanac dwells into the many technical yet logical corporate pitfalls, which have claimed many computer novices and veterans alike. What are the drawbacks to corporate America's outsourcing trends? Why is Microsoft simply too much for Linux to handle? Has the hacker community beat us? Learn how to operate in a hostile user environment and how to manage difficult situations faced everyday in corporate MIS offices. 2004 Almanac is a witty, rough-edged, "tell it like it is" account of what those contemplating a profession in the technology industry should expect and how those already in the industry will or will not survive. Never before has an author and technology insider been bold enough to tell the soiled secrets of the technology world, until now. Ten year industry veteran, Eathen Anderson, sums up the computer industry by giving detailed technical advice and squashing time-honored corporate induced "brain implants" like teamwork, college educations and the myth of saving money as conveniently irrelevant.
