    Thanks!

    In regards to pursuing this path, check out Become an MVP. My advise, become proficient in a technology of Microsoft's. From there jump into Microsoft's support or tech forums (and this forum too) and assistance others and/or write technical articles. Do these things w/o the thought of becoming an MVP but instead strive to excel in a technology or programming language and pass on your knowledge to others. I never considered becoming an MVP, instead my goal was to give back to the community at large as when I began my career as a developer online resources were my number 1 resource to learn from.

    Yeah, it's not something one usually sets out becoming, but just kind of happens. I held it for 6-7 years... something like that. It was fun while it lasted.

    Congrats Kevin!

    Basics goodies are in what I like to call a care package as shown below (took the image off the web)

    I think the best thing is access to information not available to the public

    Hmmm, those look very visual, to me. So, are the visual basic goodies?

    The MSDN subscription is over the top - isn't it? You need a full time assistant to download and organize all you get.
