You have some strongly held ignorant opinions which you mistake for facts. That makes you no different than 95% of the yokels on the internet. But, at least you admit you’re not an expert, as if that wasn’t glaringly self-evident. Nevertheless, you’re a legend in your own mind.

Sans doesn’t hand out certifications for breathing air in their classrooms for 5 straight days. Their exams are pretty challenging and rigorous. You have a pretty big mouth for someone with no professional expertise in the field of mobile device computing.

You have some strongly held ignorant opinions which you mistake for facts.

YOU worded that completely different from what you should have written.

Okay, I'll explain to you were you went wrong.

I have a lot of strongly held very informed and educated opinions about what the FACTS really are. That's completely different from what YOU appear to be, with your totally nonsensical and ignorant opinions.

That makes you no different than 95% of the yokels on the internet.

That's funny, because, most people in the IT field would thin about YOU as being part of the 95% (made up statistic, btw, and thats' unbecoming of someone that is attempting to talk about facts and credibility) of "yokels" on the internet.

But, at least you admit you’re not an expert

Where did I mention being or not an expert on anything? I'm not an expert on a lot of things, but I'm pretty sure that I'm a "better" expert in the IT field than you with your "hacking certificate". Like I said, I worked in the IT field for over 40 years, and I've been around PCs for more than 30 of those years, but my best experience was in software design and development for the big mainframes. PCs were considered toys in the mainframe world, but, I suppose they've been improved on, and which is why I've been developing applications and other software for PCs longer than you've been around.

Nevertheless, you’re a legend in your own mind. Never claimed to be a legend, though I've always made sure that I rose to the top of whatever field or project or company in IT I was ever involved in. The one that came across as the "expert that can't be challenged" was YOU, with your "certificate in hacking". Your "short-term" memory is failing you. Consult a doctor for that problem.

And, don't talk to me about certificates. Earning a certificate in anything is not the same as being an expert in the field or in the general field of IT, which YOU claimed to be, with your "I have a certificate therefore, I'm the expert and you can't challenge me. Nana, nana, nana!". What you actually did was to come across as an experienced dope.

And, again, and like I said, I'm pretty sure that my expertise in computer and in software, is more varied and more deep than anything you have ever done.

So, take your "hacking certificate" and sh... IT

WOW! Stain me impressed! Your five day certificate sure trumps Adorno’s forty plus years and my thirty-six years working careers (mine in owning a business in computing and business consulting) in computers and IT, with some of mine as a CEO of a fairly large corporation . . . Not to mention my degree in Economics! I may be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that Adorno has some pretty good sheepskin on his wall as well.

Your five day certificate in "ethical hacking" surely qualifies you to determine the market segments multinational corporations occupy far better than my four years studying micro and macro economics with a minor in Business Administration as well as a post-graduate stint teaching both, no doubt due to the, what, two minutes(?), your seminar may have spent mentioning business market segment Economics while you were supposed to be emersed in learning some kind of ethical hacking, an oxymoron, if I ever heard one.

That really had to have been some in-depth, five-day course you attended with SANS. Tell us, did they cover nuclear physics and brain surgery as well? How about Logic and such things as Logical Fallacies like the fallacy of The Appeal to Authoritiy Fallacy?

Frankly, the only one spouting strongly held, ignorant opinions as facts here, obviously based on an exaggerated opinion of the value of a limited value or perhaps worthless five-day seminar (of which I would venture Adorno and I have attended, presided at, and/or lectured for, or even presented papers at, as paid presenters for, at many such seminars in our careers) , is YOU, MountainWalker, a certified member of that 95% Internet yokel cadre. Send me $95.99 and I’ll send a finely faux engraved, full-color certificate, suitable for framing, that you can hang on your wall next to your "Ethical Hacking Certificate" attesting to your Internet Yokel Membership.

Both of them combined might get you just as much weight as we educated, experienced and informed professionals who DO KNOW WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, have already been giving your load of twaddle, zip.
