I just had my first job interview today for an ICT Operator position, and while I was preparing for it, I have watched a lot of your videos. This was one of the last ones and they have asked me what a MAC Address was and I was able to tell them where to find it because this video reminded me how to do it :Đ I'm so thankful for your channel!

Thank you so much! I'm not new to IT but I love that you are willing to share your knowledge. Other IT pros are not usually so willing. 😶

[cartergreen]

Thanks. I’m 13 years old and I plan on getting into IT. I know a lot can change in 10-15 years but I figure it’s good to have experience. I’ve already worked with command prompt a ton and programmed a ton of random crap (text based games, etc.)

This is really helping me for my entry level interview today.

Changing my career at 30 yo, always loved playing on the computer as a kid, looking to expand my knowledge and you're super helpful. Thanks!

I know this video is a little old but I really needed this! I want to get into I.T but I've been really hesitant to try to learn since I'm really worried about how little I actually know about it. I needed a start and I feel like this was it. Thank you a ton!

Congratulations on a video with a sterling quality that 95 % of other youtube instructional videos don't have: adequate sound level!!!

[YoDumbo]

Thank you Seth Rogen of computers! You are the legend in my start of the I.T field. Thank you!

Ipconfig and ipconfig /all I use regularly. Never used net statistics srv before. Great stuff! Can't wait for the next video.🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

[jupa]

you explain everything so concisely and so clearly. wow! great channel!

[hectorleon]

wow Impressed right off the back! Informative with introducing the real world weight behind knowing how each command works with it.

6 years later and video is still relevant. Randomly stumbled across this and wish I have 5 years ago when I first got into IT haha

[ryanjersonsato]

wow this really helps me as an IT student

[mattwilson]

Really really great teacher. I’m going for IT school at the end of this year and don’t wanna be the slow guy, so I hope these help me.

Zach, love these videos. Great information for the novice techie. I'm going for a degree in Cybersecurity, and I have had almost no previous IT experience. I've taken 4 of my classes so far, and the only thing I don't like is there isn't enough hands on material like this. We learned about ipconfig and pinging, but getting the statistics of how long the computer has been running and other information that you are showing in these videos is invaluable.


Could you please start an entire series playlist that you do tutorials like this? I see on your channel you have a lot of useful information, but it would be really nice for you to have a dedicated playlist that really showcases and gets people learning some great information! Please!

This video means so much to my life. Thank you for giving your hard fought for knowledge freely to us plebs ;)

You've brought up all kinds of stuff I am in the process of needing to know and I needed these, thank you!
