We have a team in southeast Asia (presently expanding) with team member skills ranging from front end and backend technologies like .NET, Java, Websphere Portal Admins, GIS Software Engineer etc.

How do we go about promoting our company (which will be formed in the US since I am located here) and acquire clients that are willing to outsource their development.

If anyone here has taken this path kindly advice.

Well I have been looking into pre-built options such as Synology or QNap for Nas storage.

I have contemplated building a desktop from ground up and implementing RAID 1.

Overall I am seeking a backup and redundancy solutions for my terabytes of photographs and personal data.

The attractive part about the pre-built solution is for instance the cloud access for Synology and the mobile Apps. Sounds very convenient and mobile access is a Huge plus for the photos.

Do any of the fellow hackers here have a suggestion for a build or a pre-build sys that would cost a max of $500 Please advise

I am currently working in Marketing /Sales. I do have a bachelors in CS and how I got here is a whole different story. However, I do feel left out of the IT race, for the lack of better words. So to sum up I had an IT background wherein I had a month or so of UNIX admin mentoring/training. It was Solaris mostly and I loved it. But I moved on to seek a challenging opportunity. That being said I still want to do some Unix Admin on the side. What would be a good resource or who will be willing to hire me for remote work or something of that sort ? Please advise

Getting into programming would ASP.NET MVC be practical in terms of job prospects ?

I have tried to get hands on with Android development but since I did not have a Java background i hit a wall. I am discovering a liking for .NET and the face that it has MVC now as a part of it frameworks make me think that a jump to another MVC framework like RoR would be possible. Any tips or links for ASP.NET MVC 2 or 3 ?

I have time and again tried my hands on learning programming logic. I have recently for instance tried Android development although I am not too proficient in Java. I can understand the code but when it comes to implementation I lack the logic perspective.

Earlier I have tried my hands on at Unix and Linux Admin stuff. At present I am working as a recruiter but in the long run I would like to secure an IT job or atleast contribute to Open source projects.

What are the prospects in UNIX admin jobs be it onsite or remote.

Please do provide your perspective on the same.
