[RCPD0715]

Just wanted to get some opinions from some of the programmers and such...I am 30 years old and have always wanted to venture into computer programming and stuff, but I never have. I was wondering what some of the experts would suggest as advice for getting involved it it....as far as schooling or reading or just trial and error lol...its more of just an interest, than anything else. i know that the world of computers is so vast that dreaming of a career in it is slim to none at this point in my life lol...anyways thanks in advance for any responses....Ron
