Ten Ways Windows 7 Is Better than Vista

This is a great article that compares some differences between Windows Vista and Windows 7. The one I like most is that Windows 7 is leaner, it's less of a resource hog, allowing it to work with older and less powerful hardware.

The Road To CISSP, Part II

Just passed the 3 week mark and no exam results. OK, "Officially" ISC2 says 6 weeks. But all the books say "4 days to 2 weeks". I scoured the internet and found that most receive their results within 2 weeks, or sooner. Of course, I made the fatal error of following the suggestion of another blogger who sent an email to the ISC2 register's office and promptly got his results. I got an email back that said my "exam had not been graded as yet and to wait 6 weeks before notifying" ISC2.

It's such torture to wait this long. My career plans and future training rest on the outcome of this exam. More than that, it will be a major shot in the arm if I pass (or it cold bring on some sever depression if I fail... ha ha).

So the wait continues. Words of encouragement are invited.
